We Are In Berlin (Ohio that is)

We traveled about 130 miles today with just over half of it on US 62 out of Columbus, OH. It wasn't bad road, just curvy and hilly and narrow. I was driving and would have enjoyed it more if I hadn't woke up with a headache. Some of the scenery was really pretty, you could see over the farm land for miles. I didn't realize that this part of Ohio was as hilly as it is.

Backing up to yesterday - Tab and Deanna came to visit us at 1000 Trails in Wilmington. We had a really nice visit with them and it was really great seeing them again. They have gone from full time to part time rv'ing. It seems to suit them though, as they said, they have the best of both worlds. One of the things that keeps them off the road full time is medical insurance. Something really does need to be done to make health insurance affordable to all, just not the plan before congress right now. Anyway, when they left, we followed them to Yellow Springs and Young's Dairy for ice cream. Oh yummmy! I had a raspberry milkshake and it was good. We bid them farewell with promises of keeping in touch and trying to see them again sometime soon.

Back to today - we are parked at Scenic Hills RV Park on top of a hill looking out over pasture with horses and a view that goes quite a long way. Thanks to Terry and Dale for recommending this park to us. I will be taking pictures in the next day or so and posting them on Picasa.

We have picked up the "tourist" brochures and need to sit down and decide what we want to do while here. One thing I would like to do is go to Coshocton and do the canal boat ride. We also purchased a "backroads" Holmes county map so we can ride a lot of the county/township roads that take you back to the true Amish country. Driving through Berlin there were so many shops but I'm really not much of a shopper any more so don't know if we'll do much of that. There are also a couple of restaurants we would like to try while in the area. We have a week, so hopefully we will be able to accomplish one or two of these items!

Check back here in a day or so for updates. I'll try to post in the evening after we have exhausted ourselves doing whatever! Later.....
