Left and now Just west of Boston 

It’s always tough getting yourself out of a home and hitting the road.  It’s been 16 years now that we have packed up and gone to the Keys.  This year we loaded up, drained the house and traveled 140 miles to the parking lot of the Auburn Mass. Elks.  It is a beautiful place and talking to a Past Exalted Ruler here he said it has 1500 members.  We seldom stay without hookups of any kind but are tonight.  It’s ok as we have 4 golf cart batteries with an inverter and a generator.  It’s fairly warm also so heat is not a problem but we can run the gas heater if need be.  I’ve have learned to get a small bbq size propane tank and hook it up to the bus, shutting the main tank that built in and requires driving to a fill station to top it off.  The small tank can be swapped out at supermarkets, Home Depot’s etc.  anyway a much better way.  

Talking to the Elks in the club I found out there was a “99” restaurant less than a half a mile away.  It is a Boston chain and Lynda and I have always had a good meal there as we did tonight.  Raining a bit when we left but I brought an umbrella and it wasn’t that far.

It feels good getting out of the house and off to see friends, relatives and experience different places.  From here tomorrow we will head due west on the Mass Pike to the Catskill mountains and stay at the Catskill New York Elks.  That is a place we have parked often and can plug in there.  So Cheers all will add more as we go along.🙃
