In Boston

Hi Again:

We left New York about 9 this morning. It was a leisurely drive and took about 4 1/2 hours long. We hit the I495 loop which goes around Boston sooner than we thought. Maps of small states can be deceiving.



The terrain that we drove through was all about the same. Except for some coastal water, there was not much but rolling hills with lots of trees. It is very scenic and the trees are beginning to change to their fall colors. We did not see one acre of farm ground. That was similar with our travels around New York as well. We may have seen 10 acres of corn altogether. The terrain around the campground that we stayed at was rolling with trees as above. As we rode in on the train the hills flattened out and then the trees just melted away and you could see the skyline of the city in the distance. The area from that point looked to be wetlands. There wasn't much there until we hit the big city.



I am sending a link to Google Maps to a picture of the campground. Our camp site is the center of the picture. http://maps.google.com/?ie=UTF8&ll=42.038758,-71.282647&spn=0.000809,0.001236&t=k&z=19&om=1 We are in Foxborough, about 5 miles from the Patriots stadium. We drove right by it.



As you can see, there isn't much to write about today. The weather has been perfect, in fact it has been great all month. We are planning on taking tomorrow off and just taking it east at the camper, so probably won't write. Stay tuned. L&G
