DAY 12 JUNE 13, 2013

Today was the kind of day that makes us appreciate the so-so days that could go either way and really appreciate the great days. Left the hotel in the rain ended up northbound on a toll road at 65 in the rain stopped for lunch, in the rain. Took a break to get something warm to drink, in the rain. Opened my top box and discovered that my computer and atlas were now 150 miles behind us in Allentown, in the rain.

Called the Allentown Best Western to find out that they found my computer in the lobby and would ship it to my house, in the rain. After a gas stop the rain started falling harder making it difficult to drive when we saw that great blue sign, Best Western next exit, in the rain.

The Best Western turned out to be 14 miles off of I-88, in the rain. After checking in found out quite by accident we were in Cooperstown and a short ride away from the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum with plenty of time left in the day. Soon we were turning a bad day into a good one with a museum visit, dinner at a local restaurant with a local beer, inside out of the rain. This was followed by a trip to the hot tub, and a trip to the lobby to use their computer.

Always look for the good, even a bad day sparks good conversation and memories.

Glass is always half full...hopefully not with rain! Good post, sorry you lost your computer. Long, busy day. Some went to heaven, some are going soon. Still had some homework.
Good night. Love, me xoxox
