USA USA USA

It is SO good to be back in the USA.  Gas is a gallon; not a litre.  Miles are miles; not kilometers.  And the flag has stars and stripes and not maple leaves.  Canada is nice; people are nice; beautiful scenery, but we are glad to be home. 

Crossing the border was not so bad.  We answered questions and they looked inside the RV, but we didn't have to open the slides like we did when we went over.  We didn't have anything to hide, but we've heard horror stories.

We got here at Pumpkin Patch RV Park outside of Bangor Maine around 3.  Forgot about the time change so we got an hour back....we need it.  We've decided to stay two nights here and just rest up.  Ronnie's birthday is tomorrow and he wants to NOT drive for a day.  LOL.  It's a nice park.  The weather is nice...supposed to be in the 30's tonight, tho. 

As soon as we got into Maine, the trees began to show color....reds, oranges, yellows.  Pretty.  We are still a little early, but it is what it is.

Not much else to report....We did go to a local grocery store to stock up on food items.  Wow....a really, really nice supermarket...huge....my wonderful Kroger times 10.   Ronnie's grilling burgers tonight and tomorrow I will do laundry and clean the floors...with all the rain, the kitchen floor is looking a little grungy.  I'll either clean or watch "Hoarders"...either way I'll feel better about the RV.
