NBNC>NY>STL>NY>NBNC: End of Summer 2015

Fireside at the site

Blink: today is May 8th and we have checked in at Mayfair Campground onto site 45 in Sylvan Beach NY;

Sadie
The "Glampers"
Blink: we have become friends with a group of upstaters; the Rosenburgs, the Brittons, the Bartons and the Browns. Our friendship quickly develops into a tight group; we have named ourselves “the Glampers”, aka glamorous campers.

Carol, Eric, Alex and Kyle
The Costello Family
















Steve and Adrienne
Two at St. Thomas
Blink: it is July and we travel to Saint Louis to visit our children and grandchildren; we are re-energized with the love, laughter, reminisces, and memories of our amazing family.

St. Thomas








Blink: we find ourselves cruising the open seas to the eastern Caribbean with the Glampers.  


St. Maarten

Day-trippers on tropical islands, themselves being paradoxes in affluence and abject poverty; communities that carry on without any concession to modern luxuries and resorts with panache on a par with Las Vegas. 
St. Maarten


Nighttime on the sea, when moonlight reflects near the horizon and the ebony of the southern skies intensely flaunts the bright swath of the Milky Way and some of the brightest stars in our galaxy.

Blink: it is September 28th and we end our summer journey returning to our home in New Bern.

Blink: 142 days where the sun has risen and set and the moon lit our evenings; days of leisure, of relaxation, of excursions on byways and highways, days of poignant, lasting memories imprinted on our hearts by aged parents declining in health.

There are times when there are not enough words to sort out and express the feelings of these nearly 150 days in our rig. The impressions left on our hearts by so many. So here with a glimpse of our wonderful summer of 2015

Last fireside flames







Life is Short: Enjoy the Ride
