3 labradors & 3 comfy beds

Staying over night at a random shopping mall (again) we get underway hitting the morning traffic heading into Buffalo We drove for over 350 miles, on the way getting lost because our stupid GPS kept taking us under small railway bridges. Remember what dad said 12' good 11' or 10' not! We asked a nice lady at a quilt shop what she thought, she gave us full directions out to route 4 with out hitting any low railway bridges... cleverly leaving our map in the quilt shop - not! LOL

After travelling for what seemed like ages we reached Pittsfield, Vermont where at the gas station Mrs Charlebois met us and guided us up the hill to her place where she made us feel at home by giving us a drink, offering us a shower, a feed, a walk with the dogs or a movie. We had a lovely time with magnificent people and wonderful dogs. Finally getting a double bed in a room by myself, trust me I enjoyed it!

Getting to sleep-in was cool then also lying in bed watching TV was good for me. All day was fun we had a bath, walked the dogs and then went to the mall to get some glasses for mum (they were lost a week or so ago), as that was all happening we grabbed a slice of pizza and went for a walk were more candy was kindly made ours - Yum! (Mrs Charlebois spoilt us rotten the whole time 4 sure!!) Mum's new lovely red glasses were ready, then we & Mrs C went shopping for some groceries and some supplies while Mum & Dad wandered the mall. Today was a lazy day but great, after that we walked the dogs at the golf course, let some steam out of Gracie the younger playful one. Then we watched a movie about… can you guess? a dog!

Half way through the movie we fed the dogs and Mr C asked if we wanted to make smores after dinner. But for smores we needed crackers and we didn’t have any... so down to the corner shop we went. Back at the house we had a delicious dinner and then realised that for smores you need chocolate and we didn’t have any, so back down to the shop. Outside it was freezing when we lit the fire. You must be wondering the recipe for smores? They go like this... roast marshmallows till bubbly, put onto the chocolate and then the chocolate onto the cracker! Yum-o! After that we finished the movie and went to bed.

Man let me tell you Gracey is one enthusiastic dog because this morning she sat at my door whining, so I let her in, by golly that was a mistake I was half asleep by the end of it I was awake! We had a lovely cooked breakfast with eggs ham and strawberries! Gave the dogs a walk and then hopped in the sauna wow that was hot! Then me and my crazy sisters jumped in there pond (well Amy and Emma did!!!) it was the most freezing water ever - Amy even swam right across!! We had a shower, filled up water in the RV then off we went about lunchtime!

PS. thanks heaps for letting us stay Mr and Mrs Charlebois. Your hospitality was legendary!!!
