We're on the road again. Thanks Willie Nelson for the line.
Some of American is back to work ~ especially in the road construction business. I counted at least a dozen traffic detours, cattle chutes, etc. I am not sure what they are doing. Hopefully, it is all legitimate work. It hasn't always been. But that...is another story.
Driving north through Pennsylvania there was the limest green grass I have ever seen in grass. Reminescent of a picture I want to paint. I was hoping to see this color on my travels. It is always a treat to cross the Hudson River. The valley is absolutely gorgeous. I studied Hudson River Valley School of painting in college. The colors were always dark, not like the colors seen with my eyes. Maybe earlier painters revealed a more polluted time?
Stopping in Connecticut, one of my favorite states, and one in which I wanted to live. Snowball got a bath, exterior only for $8. That is a steal for Connecticut. Gas here is $3.80 ish. Could that account for higher gas taxes?
Speed limits once in New York and Connecticut are 55 mostly. New York State Troopers were everywhere. Clearly, their budget is in trouble.
Tomorrow I will check in for a look see at the cabin where I will be staying. Maybe later a drive along the seacoast.
I have a friend that lives in Maine. Visiting with her will probably be in a week or two. Probably stop in to see a dear friend who works in Portsmouth. No doubt we'll see a concert or two in the next month.
Next week I have a meeting with a rental realtor, oil change, and another drive along Maine's incredible jagged coastline. I'll be boating soon. For sure.
