Sunday 4 Oct We did some laundry in the am and then had an early diner with all Diane's sisters at John's dinner. It was good to see everyone and lots of conversation while eating. Just as we pulled into the dinner the clouds started to break up and sun finally came out. We went home and continued to pack for the trip up north.
Monday 5 Oct We planned on being on the road by 10 for our drive up to Tioga county but as fate would have it we didn't get rolling until 11:15 and after stopping at Giant to hook up the car, it was 11:45 . It was a nice day and an uneventful ride to northern PA. The leaves are just starting to change but still nice. We pulled into Ives run campground just a few minutes ahead of Jen, Greg, and Aunt Ada. After a brief hello we arranged our campsites, had a nice dinner of chicken and salad then settled in for the week of camping and visiting.
Tuesday 6 Oct Woke up to a dark cloudy day but dry, After breakfast and rearranging things in the campers we headed out for a drive. The leaves are just starting to turn and with the cloudy sky leaf looking was a little disappointing, but we did manage to find an ice cream stand along the way. Ham and corn on the cob for diner
Wednesday 7 Oct We each kind of did our own thing today after Greg cooked a very nice breakfast of everything (pancakes, scrapple, eggs, fruit, real maple syrup, etc.) Diane and I went to check out the farm and the Boonies campground looking for a place to camp this weekend. We all gathered for a short happy hour and a tour of the Folk's new TT before enjoying some home made chili and fresh baked rolls. The new camper was very nice, having a fire place and lots of room for Jen, Greg, Aunt Ada and the 2 dogs....
Thursday 8 Oct Woke up to another cloudy morning but by the time we had breakfast and cleaned up the sky's cleared and the sun came out. We took another drive today trying to find Aunt Ada some nice fall foliage. Heading back toward the farm we finally found a couple of hill sides that were very nice. As soon as we returned Diane found a site that

opened up here at Ives Run so we won't be moving to the Boonies.
Friday 9 Oct Well it is the end of our week together. A good time was had by one and all. Jen, Greg and Aunt Ada are heading back to Dillsburg while Diane and I are moving to another campsite here at Ives Run. But you know it is almost as much work to move a half mile as it is to move a hundred miles. We packed up in between rain showers, said our goodbyes and left site 3 for the long drive to site 110. We headed into town for supplies and I bought wipers for the car. We headed back home carried our purchases in and tried to install the new wipers. Only one fit so tomorrow we will have to go back to town to return it. The rain slowly subsided and we did cook on the grill for diner.
Saturday 10 Oct What a difference a week has made in foliage color. We headed into Wellsboro to
