Thursday, October 22, 2009 Madison-Pittsburgh KOA, Ruffs Dale, PA

Larry did great getting out of the city and through the confusing streets with all the traffic to find our route heading west. It really didn’t take long to get out of the congested city and into the country. We hadn’t driven more than a half hour till we saw a wild turkey in the grassy area beside the road. We left New Jersey this morning with beautiful sunshine and it continued most of the day with just some thin clouds at times. We’ve been in Pennsylvania most of the day with lots of farms all along the way. Our drive was nicely uneventful through the Appalachian and Allegheny Mountains where we came through four fairly long tunnels. All along the way the road was lined with beautifully colored trees.


We’re settled into this nice small campground for the evening. According to the weather forecast we will be leaving in the rain tomorrow morning.
