OK we are all settled in. Met up with Manchester Shark. Mark & Shirley were a sight for sore eyes.
Had a nice bite to eat at exit 100. Car was running a little rough over the mountain tops, Mark thought ethenol maybe? So I'm watchin the gas gage and it seemed to be sittin on 3/4 tank for a long time....like 3hours! Dang it!Confused Stopped off for gas and it took 12.6 gallonsShocked So I think the tank is what 18 gallons? Could have made it but glad I stopped, even with a full moon I-81 is scary!
So I'll keep track of the mileage though a full tank should get me home ok.
I'll update tomorrow kiddies..............

Great weather! Met some more new friends, what a family this group is.

From a newbies perspective of Carlisle......where the heck do you start! Cars, parts, products, clothing, food smells everywhere.......

Cars where priced very reasonable, seen quite a few driver bumper cars for 14-19K range. The car flag was pretty kewl deal they did a great job putting it all together. They gave each car a nice bottle of wine with the last car flag picture on the lable. Some people put the wine in there cars rolled up the windows and left. Now did I mention it was a cloudless day and in the 80's. The cars stayed in formation from 11-3:30pm......do you know what a bottle of wine does when it is subjected to over 100 degress for over 4 hours? POP GOES THE WINE BOTTLE! Not mine though...I drank it within 15 minutesBig smile

Just for the heck of it I wore my pedomiter today I walked 12,583 steps just under 4 miles will need to double that to see it all tomorrow.
Adam is gone now so Saturday will be a buy 1 get 1 membership FREE dayLOL
