Road Trip Day 1: Alexandria, VA- Bath, NY

We started the adventure! We began the morning bright and early with the truck arrival at 7:30 am. Tom and his dad got two helpers to assist us in carrying things into the truck and we did it all amazingly. I am still unsure how, but with the help of our families, the truck driver, and of course-our favorite new amigos, it all fit. I didn't even have to say goodbye to anything, although I got a bit nervous for awhile and started making a discard pile just in case. But they did it and I'm so happy. So Tom and I were able to leave our apt about 2:30 this afternoon and drove to Bath, NY...which may actually be the most po-dunk place in the country, but that's okay. We found a Days Inn and are now nearly tucked into bed and ready for a great night's sleep. Tomorrow we're planning on sleeping in and then getting to Niagra Falls for lunchtime! Thanks again mom, William, Libby, Dennis, Abby, Nolan (truckdriver, guided us through the jigsaw puzzle of piecing it all in), Carlos & Orlando (who carried most of the heavy things down and smiled the whole way through). Lots done today and looking forward to the Falls and Canada tomorrow!

This was our quick trip through Gettysburg...nice little visit to get a feel for the area and have a quick look around. Tom enjoyed the statue of Alabamian something, posing with the gun to completely ruin any sanctity in the place.
