Nov. 21 - Off we go, our first day on the road. Gail is happy despite having to get up at 6 a.m. We managed to catch the 7 o'clock ferry, and after a full day of driving, arrived at Harrisburg PA by 4:30 p.m. A good day to drive, as it was partly cloudy, there was reasonable traffic, and no snow. Usually it's white knuckles driving through the Pennsylvania mountains, but very nice this year. Pays to get away before the snow flies. Cool, though, which is why we're hurrying south a little more quickly that we'd planned. We're looking for warm days, and hope to find them in Georgia on Monday.

As we drove between Syracuse and Binghampton, we remembered our mishap of three years ago, and said a little thank you to the Driver God for not having been hurt. Sobering memory.
