Pulling out of Stroudsburg this morning, I crossed over 10,000 miles on this trip:
Morning fog going through northeast Pennsylvania
To break-up the drive, we stopped at 11 AM at the Hill-Stead Museum in Farmington, Connecticut. Wendy and I were the only ones at 11, so we got "the private tour". Photos-inside are not allowed, which is silly because the images are available on-line. Two-of-the-Four Monets are:

Grainstacks, in Bright Sunlight, 1890:
The outside and grounds are lovely:

37 days, 10,304 miles - Thank you God for ALL these GREAT adventures!

I kept only 3 songs (but they're REALLY GOOD SONGS):

The Commodores - "Sail On", 1979 (Top 10 single)

The 5-minute version of "Shout" (by Otis Day and the Knights) was a SUPER SONG, and a staple for at least 5 years at parties and weddings.
