After a day of much needed rest, we left Rochester. On our way through Taunton, we took a short detour to drive by Grammy and Grampy's old house. The weeping willow tree was still there and I took several pictures while remembering how we cousins would race up and down the stairs until Grampy shouted for us to stop.
We spent the first night at Hemlock Campground in Tobyhanna, PA (the Poconos) where the temp dropped to the high 50's that night. We even turned on the little electric heater to take the chill off! The next night we stayed at Hickory Hollow Campground in Rockwood, PA. Both of these campgrounds were clean and quiet Passport America parks. We try to use the parks in this system because they are half-price for members. There are limitations sometimes, i.e, only one night at PA rate or not during weekends or holidays, but with careful planning, you can save a lot of money.
Friday we arrived at Mike and Diane's Church Street Deli in Spencer, WV in time for a delicious lunch and then on to their house in Mt. Zion while they finished up their work day.

It was a restful weekend enjoying their company and her good cooking. Saturday evening they took us to Glenville to the Smokehouse BBQ for a delicious meal and then a scenic drive over to Cedar Creek State Park where they like to camp. The park was large, sites spacious with several pull through sites and many families were taking advantage of the beautiful weather that weekend.
By Monday we were rested sufficiently to hit the road again and head southward.
