Hey, finally I get ahold of the laptop! Settling in nicely to life on the road, we've quickly moved through NY which brought back some great memories and I spent most of the drive waving to exits and reminding Will of who lived where and when I had been there at some point during my IC days. Niagra proved to be...so, so. I big body of water for sure, but much less natural than I had somehow pictured it despite what everyone tried to tell me! Sound familiar...I am one of those don't believe it till you see it kinda girls. Remember Nome, Alaska Dad? What I was expecting to be dogsleds and miles of natural beauty was actually a little shit town with not much more than bars and the Bering Sea. The one thing that did come out of Nome, Alaska was a little ivory carving...known as a Billiken and given to my Dad and I as a good luck charm. An acient belief from way back, being passed on to us then and now traveling along now as a constant companion, good luck charm and photo centerpiece as it may turn out. 
Western NY wine country was more a thing of beauty as far as I was concerned. Local vineyards and cool folks where the centerpiece of our afternoon. Drinking and chatting both happen to be strong points of mine, coupled with one woman who insisted on difference type of chocolate to be paired with each taste. HEAVEN! Hot dogs around the camp fire and a sweet push button shower rounded out the evening quite nicely. Though not the nicest campsite, we were happy to be safe and settled for the night.
Going to have to save tomorrows day for my next post, the most epic so far in my mind...with a little less emphasis on the oil change and little bit more on the amazing natural beauty that we found nestled in Porter, Indiana =)
Oh, not to mention...that was the day that I officially entered the "5 Speed Drivers of America Club" A long time coming I know!
