Well, we made it to Ohio.  Mantua,  Ohio to be exact.  We're at Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park.  It's great we're not right next to anybody, and the people that are here camping are quiet and just chillin out.  I'm making dinner on the fire right now, and we got the air conditioner on in the camper, and Gus' filling up the water tank!  The weather is perfect, and has been all day!  Big puffy cotton ball-like clouds and blue skies.  Anyway, let me recap what we did yesterday.   We were just hanging out most of the day.  The girls found a really cool box turtle, and a garter snake, which the girls were totally willing to hold.  Then for lunch we had a cookout on a fire.  We had fried fish called Walleye, (not sure if I spelled that right), fire roasted veggies, veggie dogs, watermelon, and oven roasted potato wedges.  Am I making your mouths water? Cause that's how good it was.  Then we went to Knoebel's in Elysburg, PA, about 45 minutes from Jewel's house.  Bill came with us, and we had so much fun.    We went on rollercoasters, bumper cars, the swings, the ferris wheel, a lift ride that went above the park, and the girls went on a few more rides.  Gus and I had waffle and icecream sandwiches, and soft pretzels.   The atmosphere was great.  People could even bring their dogs.  Well, we left Jewel and the girls this morning.  It was pretty sad.  This past week has gone so fast, but it was the best first stop for our trip!  Thanks girls!  We just got done eating dinner, and Gus needs to inform you all that he ate asparagus.  Yes, it's true I said he ate asparagus.  I'm ready to enjoy the fire now and relax.  Tomorrow we plan to visit Cleveland, home to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, and much more.
