So lucky to be back on the road again to explore more of our country --our path began in the Catskills to step out of NH and from then on --wing it looking at maps, weather,and suggestions from friends and folks on the road.Reading PA WW2 yearly event of the folks of the greatest generation so far .Wow what gathering thousands from all over the country who come with equipment original and restored military equipment--set up tents to show living conditions--bunkers --machine guns  M1 rifles-lots of originals tanks, lots of jeeps.WW2 bombers and fighter planes all props back then were amazing to see and fly.The B-29 Flying Fortress  not the one but a brother of the one that carried the the big one over Japan to end the war..Best of all was a speaker platform allowing some of these folks who were there ---to tell their stories -- Walter Mattson B24 bomber pilot flew many missions over Italy 93 years old now got there and told his spoke like he just got back  -born on Ascension day still believes there is someone up there looking after him. There is!!!
Gotta tell ya after that day got some real history sunk into you
Moved on went into Philly --We got a Philly sub next to Betsey Ross house with chicken
What a GREAT city  got a picture of the Liberty Bell --lots to learn there to-then spent day day with Faith-- our Costa Rican  can not hold her down best friend  and family in Philly .
Live for the moment
