On the move - again

Another lovely day here in CT.  Leaving Chamberlain Lake here in Woodstock, CT a day early to go to Freightliners to get some work done.  Need to get that yearly maintenence done besides have them do a few extras like tuning up the generator.  Earl and Dave took ride over to Hingham, MA yesterday to check out our 1st workcamping site and looks like it will be ok.  Am sure it will be.  Only 1 of us has to put in 20 hours a week for our site and that isn't much.  Earl is a bit worried we won't get enough of a phone signal to do internet there but we'll have to wait and see where we are in the park I guess.  This has been an ok park.  50 amp service; a drain for your grey water and dump station and choice of being in under the trees where it is many degrees cooler or out in the open for satellite.  We are under the trees and hardly any tv reception which is fine by me.  We do get PBS so what more can you ask for. ha!  This place had band in last night and park is fairly full with all sorts of campers; a lot of children so it's nice to see folks out enjoying the summer.

Before leaving Hingham I finally was able to get a picture of this sign.  Massachusetts has one for each of their towns and it's such a kick to drive from one town to another and see this sign with date of settlement started.  Hard to get pictures because you don't know where the town line begins and there is no place to pull over for a quick stop and picture.  It's a bummer. On this one I was lucky enough after a month to be driving towards sign and 1st at stoplight with camera next to me. ha!  All these towns are so historic and have some wonderful history.  Too bad so many have been neglected.  Roads are terrible in most places and some are really run down while others thrive.. just like anywhere.  Just interesting observations. I was taken so much with Hingham because we lived there for 5 weeks and it was so CLEAN!  Loved the manicured yards and over 1800 historic homes and some still in residence of 13 generations!  That is something in this young country with so littl

We were surprised to have Earl III come down for a very short visit in Aug 2017 and took him up to Sedona and Taliesin West to see Frank Lloyd Wright's art school.  Very interesting tour and unique setting.  Of course homes are crowding in on this area now so not the seclusion that was intended when originally built.

It was a bit of a surprise to see this guy swoop down on this dove at our "quail block" the other day.  He sat there looking around long enough for us to get a few pictures then flew off to eat in private.  Thank goodness he took the dove with him instead of feasting right there.  They have to eat too; and all that but it is disturbing to come out and see a pile of feathers.  I can speak from past experience they do not leave anything behind besides feathers.. no skin or bones or waste...  Pretty isn't it...
