We had 3 questions asked today which the answer to me should have been obvious.
-If the wind is blowing south and you launch a hot air balloon, which way would the balloon travel?
-Would a light color vehicle be cooler in the summer than a black one?
-When a glider is towed up to altitude by a tow plane and released will it hook back up to the tow plane before landing?
Now I know I am not the smartest kid on the block but really...

Old Coot
We were talking with another RV'er who is up here visiting his relatives and his mom.
He mentioned his sister and her husband added a suite to their house for their mom to live in. He said his mom is 93 years old and still active in blowing. She took the carpet up in one of her rooms but couldn't get the staples out of the floor. He told his mom he would do it for her but like most children never get around to doing it. So when they were out with friends she shamed him into coming over and taking care of it. We thought, tough old lady! Good for her. Now he is in his 70's and here his mother is 93 and still going strong. I am truly happy to hear older people are still getting out and enjoying themselves and not seeing themselves as old.

Nice Ladies
It has been a privilege to meet several very nice ladies here at the RV park in Bath NY.
The friendship of Diane, Judy, Barbara, Elaine & Mary are simply very warm and open. Their husbands are nice as well. We have had some good times sitting around talking at the ice cream social or around the camp fire. It has been a welcome treat to meet such nice ladies. All of them at one time or the other has worked camped here. A few come back each year simply because it is a nice area and the people are so friendly.
