Good friends and old times…
We got up early after a night of Wally-docking (That’s staying in a Walmart parking lot).
We decided to have breakfast before we left so we drove over to a place called Yolks, that just serves breakfast and lunch. Very good.
After coming back from breakfast we walked over to Walmart (a short trip across the parking lot) to do some shopping and pick up our prescriptions. Having them at Walmart really makes things easy as we move about the country.
After puttering around the coach, we headed out around noon for Northhampton, MA to visit a high school friend of Jan’s.
We expected the 100 mile trip to take us about 2 and 1/2 hours. Instead, due to heavy traffic and congestion, it took almost 4 hours. It took us a hour and 10 minutes to got 13 miles at one point.
After getting setting up here at Windy Acres RV park, we headed over to Joan’s house in South Hadley, about 13 miles away, to have pizza.
And both the pizza and the company were great.
I hadn’t seen Joan since 1972 and Jan hadn’t seen her since 1976, when she came up for her 10th reunion. But it was good to talk over old times.
Tomorrow we are getting together to drive around the area.
