"Take I-95 all the way", said the motel desk clerk when we asked for directions to get around new york city and on to connecticut. "BUT," he said, elongating the word, "if that gets screwed up, just turn on the radio and turn it to . . . " we didn't hear much after that and it was with apprehension that we mounted the bike and headed for new york!! that's not even fun in a car, so i know paul wasn't anxious to be going on the bike. and if the stress of waiting to get on the george washington bridge wasn't enough, the 100 degree temp made it a little tougher. but it's all behind us now and he did a FINE job! good news is that it's supposed to start cooling off tomorrow.
well, we're in west haven, ct, tonight, having gone about 280 miles. paid our all-time high of $4.38 for gas. have logged about 3500 miles thus far. will head to bangor, maine, tomorrow. looking forward to less traffic and cooler temps.
