September 29th – arrived in Sullivan, IL

We made it to Sullivan, IL!

Since our motorhome is in NY, we had to travel from Florida to NY to begin our trip.   We left Celebration, Florida on Monday, 9/24 and arrived at our home in Brewster, NY on Tuesday evening (actually, ‘Tessie’ did most of the driving on auto pilot).  The trip was more adventurous that usual, since we had to take an alternate route around I-95.   Some Tesla superchargers were closed on I-95 from the last hurricane, so we had to take an alternate route.   It was a bit longer, but no tolls!  🙂

After visiting with Joe’s parents for a few days and overcoming some motor home battery issues, we got packed up and left for Sullivan in ‘Breezy’ on Friday afternoon (‘Breezy’ is the nickname for our Tiffin Breeze motorhome).

After about 8 hours of driving on Friday, we pulled into a ‘Wally World campground’  (i.e. a Walmart parking lot) in Mansfield, OH.   We finished up the drive on Saturday and arrived in Sullivan around 9pm.   We met up with some of our fellow RV Care-A-Vanners, and joined the other RV’s behind the Faith Lutheran Church in Sullivan.  We ‘dry camped’ for the night, which means that we did not hook up any water or electricity.   In Breezy, we are able to spend 3 nights ‘dry camping’ before we have to empty the tanks and fill with fresh water.
