Mea culpa

I am sooooo far behind on this blog. We've taken lots of pictures and a few notes along the way, but the truth be told...we've traveled so much this summer it's hard to remember what we did and when we did it. If I sat down each night an wrote I would probably have a pretty good representation of what we've done and seen But we have been having so much fun, and the people we've met have been so interesting...well, we've spent most evening either socializing with new friends or going to sleep pretty early as we were just plain worn out!
Another big obstacle has been lack of good wifi. We bought a hot spot and we have data on most of our devices, but it seems we use all that stuff up long before we should and we are left with very poor service. Every campground we've been in advertises "free wifi." Sadly, the service has been poor in most every state with the exception of South Dakota. Supposedly we would get the resort's wifi in our RV, but most places we had to go to the main lodge and even then it was slow, sometimes taking ten or fifteen minutes to download one picture.
Theoretically, one of the reasons we made this trip was to "unplug," not be so tied down to our devices. Unfortunately we found that it's not that easy. There was always some bit of business coming up and we found ourselves frustrated with the lack of Internet availability.
In the meantime, we are now back in North Carolina for a couple of weeks,and  I'm trying to spend some time each day "catching up" with the blog. We're still having a good time and we'll be continuing our adventures, one way or another.
