Accord, New York
The last stop on our New England trip was New York. We stayed at Rondout Valley Resort in Accord, NY - It was a quick stop, but still very full of adventure!
Nice location next to a fun group of people. Met a friendly firefighter named Joe who also has an English Bulldog!Our home away from home for the night
Putting on the New York sticker! The NY countryside is very different from New York City! Lots of farms and open space! Not a McDonalds in sight :-) We ate at a great diner while in Accord- the boys had pancakes and Bryan and I had the special... It was a Chinese dish!!!! HahahahahaOur map is getting very CoLOrFuL!!!!!Can you see this picture? It's a bridge- a very short bridge! You can't drive under it if you are driving in a tall RV! We climbed a mountain on our way out of town ( heading towards home sweet home) and I told Bryan that we only had 5 more minutes of this crazy terrain and we would be fine- headed to a nice, roomy interstate! The next thing we see is this bridge... We panicked for half a second! There is no backing up in a rig pulling a Jeep! We sprung into action ( we were a very good team I must say!) and unhooked the Jeep, I stopped traffic and Bryan was able to get out of that precarious position and head back down the mountain. I found us a route that didn't include any low clearance bridges at the next gas station! As a bonus, we discovered these yummy drinks at that station :-)

We have yet to make it to New York, but it is defiantly on our must see list. Even though, I know NY isn't all city. The word "CITY" , however, is first thing I think of when I hear the name.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you were able to get out of that low bridge predicament. I saw a video clip once, of a RV that didn't make clearance, and it was not pretty. That video, defiantly made me be a bit more aware of low bridges, etc. Btw, This is a very nice Blog :)
