We have reservations for the month starting April 12th at Yogi Bear in Williamsport MD.

A trip to Arizona is in the works for August with a swing to Carlsbad Caverns NM.

I think a northern PA trip and who know what else depending upon the better halfs work. Probably a couple York PA and stuff.

Was working on the trailer today.

I'm ready to go to. I'd like to get to Yellowstone soon but that's a long drive from Pa and she only gets a week off. Went to Acadia last July. This new job I've been working has me working every weekend so going anywhere is a challenge

Nat'l parks are going to be difficult to get into this year with the sequester going into effect...... just something to consider. Saw in the Washington Post newspaper today that Yellowstone will be opening LATE this year because no one is being paid to plow this spring.....
