The end of July took us to the Pittsburgh area to visit to some family. We had a nice lunch out, a wander around the mall, and some fun time with the grand puppy.

After our layover outside Pittsburgh, we headed further north to Evans City to stay at a peaceful Boondockers Welcome host. I had managed to wrench my back at some point on our way to PA, so I was wearing, what I like to call, my championship belt – which actually is a back support brace. 🍫🍫 I was moving pretty slow, so it was nice to be at a stop where I didn’t have to do too much to hook up to power and then just settle in. The host was very friendly, and we had a great chat one of the three evenings I stayed there.
Our next drive took us into Potter County – a place that holds a lot of memories for me. It was a beautiful route into the Galeton area. We stopped for groceries and set up at Crooked Creek Campground, which was on the banks of the Pine River. We had some rain, but it was beautiful and peaceful.



There were a couple of nice nights where I could take a little walk. Arthur slept well while we were there, but he seems to sleep well everywhere…. The creek was idyllically calm.

We stayed for a week, and then we were off to our next stop – New York State.

On our way out of Pennsylvania, we made a stop at the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon. It’s not as impressive as the Grand Canyon, but it has fond memories for me, and it was good to see it one more time.
