Back Home, New Photos

We made it back home tonight after a full day's drive. Once we got going, it was pretty uneventful. Everyone was glad to be back home.

When we talked about getting the RV unpacked, Denise made it clear that she did not want to start unpacking the RV the moment we got home. She wanted to wait until tomorrow, Sunday, and just enjoy our first night back.

So, of course, as soon as we got back, she wanted to get it unpacked right away! We unpacked quite a bit, went out for Chinese food, and then came home and almost finished unpacking. We have about 5-10% left to go tomorrow, and then need to clean it before we bring it back. I'm glad we did a lot of the unpacking because it will make tomorrow easier.

I uploaded the last of Ben's photos, from the Cincinnat Zoo and from Gettysburg. Ben and I had fun walking around Gettysburg. He was really interested in what life was like for the soldiers and in how the battle turned the tide for the Union army. I had been there a few years ago and saw the place in detail, so I was happy to just show Ben the highlights. We spent about 3 hours looking around, which gives you a good overview. If you really want to get into the details, you can spend 1 - 1 1/2 days there.

Thanks for reading our blog during the trip and for all your comments and feedback. We may have one or two more wrap-up posts before we're done, but having a chance to write about the trip along the way helped motivate us to capture our thoughts and pictures, as well as saved us the trouble of sending a lot of postcards!
