Welcome to City-Data.com forum! Make sure to This started as my travel log. (We've been traveling the USA from Seattle, WA since Labor Day '08.) My husband has a great website showing the highlights and his commentaries on the places we've been and the things we've done. (View via my profile home page.)
I found that while discovering the country, I was also finding myself. I am learning what to keep, and what to drop -- or chisel away. I don't mind sharing; maybe you will learn something from my lessons, too.
Then came Bigun, my Cocker-Beagle, my newest guru. He's got his own category in the Blog, and an album on my profile.
You are welcome to what I have, good and bad, and leave messages as you like, but please be kind. I, too, am still "in training."

Heading Back to PA

New York is such a huge state, and such diversity! I wish the weather had been better for us, so that we could've enjoyed it more, but we enjoyed it still.
Within the hour, we head back to PA, to stay in Lewistown, and visit State College. That city WAS on my list of potential Mayberry towns initially, but as I've learned more about myself on this trip, I think it may be too large.
Every day I learn more about what I like and dislike. As a problem-solver by nature, I tend to focus on what I dislike, seeing it as a problem to be solved. I've learned today that observers see that as my being negative. I am sorry for that, because it is not true. Oh, I do have my moments -- maybe more than some, but not most of the time.
Anyway, I am glad we've had this chance to see New York, again. I loved the Erie Canal and its history, and of course the Falls. The landscape is beautiful. What diversity this state has to offer.
And, still, I am glad to be moving on. After State College, on to Indiana, and then north to Illinois, Wisconsin, Upper Michigan, and over to Minnesota -- where we will head south, again.
What a ride this journey is taking us on!
