We spent 4 nights in Gettysburg, Pa. mainly due to the closeness of home. Since we were out with the motorhome we did not want to go through the work of getting in to the driveway and then back out 4 days later. I had my medical test (colonoscopy) in Westminster on Tuesday with good results and we went home in the Jeep on Wednesday to mow grass, vacuum the house and gather up beach things for going to Myrtle Beach. So this morning, Thursday, we left Artillery Ridge Campground and the horses that are corralled within the campground and travelled to Milford, Virginia for a Labor Day weekend campout with the Traveling Americans- 176 miles. The campground, R & D Campground. has been the site used for the last 5 or 6 years by this group as many leave from the campout to continue on down I-95 to Myrtle Beach, S.C. This will be our first year of joining this group in Myrtle Beach. Two years ago we had started out to go to Myrtle Beach but had problems with the motorhome that caused us to cancel out and purchase a new motorhome.
The Traveling Americans are celebrating the 45th anniversary of the club this weekend so a big turnout is expected with some past members returning to join in on the activities. Tomorrow evening will be the official start although there are about 10 units here already.
