Tuesday, August 29th - Connie & Mike

Today we left Milford, PA and immediately crossed over the Delaware River into New York state. We took Exit-1 because there is a TINY part of New Jersey that sneaks up in a point. I knew that, as a rule, NJ fuel is sig. less than NY or PA fuel. Instead of paying $3.15 for diesel fuel, I paid $2.84! When you buy 90 gallons of fuel, that saves us about $27. It is still painful but, somehow, seems less so.

We drove to Warwick, NY and had a wonderful visit with Connie and Mike Wehmeyer. I worked with Connie for about 10 years at Prodigy (White Plains, NY) and we have stayed in touch thru the years. Connie owns Subtle Energies, a delightful salon specializing in massage, reflexology, aromatherapy and other natural healing remedies. Her landlord, Ed, graciously allowed us to set up "camp" in his parking lot. Later, we are at a cozy Italian restaurant in Sugar Loaf, NY. After dinner, we all returned to the coach and Connie gave me a hand massage (aching joints) and MA a treatment for her aching Achilles Heel. Felt wonderful!
