1 RV to Syracuse NY (delivered)

1 RV to Kingston NY

... spending the night at Glenmont NY

Breakfast, two egg patties and a sausage. And apple juice, the OJ was out.

It has been raining overnight and will be again as soon as we get down the road. But as we are loading up all is dry. BB referred to this hotel as a Comfort Inn soon to be an EconoLodge but I do not remember why. (Usually the downgrade is to Quality Inn.

1st stop is an hour down the road at a Oasis near Scottsville.

From there I head to a parking lot next door to BB's drop but she first heads to a Sunoco a couple of miles away. I still have enough fuel range to get to my drop so I am not adding any extra miles. When BB is back she stops at the lot first and puts the last of her stuff into my RV before driving to the drop. AFTER we are parked and they were inspecting they told us where to park next time.

While I was waiting for BB at the lot I called the NY bus dispatcher to let her know I will be available next week.

They are not in a huge rush today so I was there about an hour. BB was there a little less than that. No issues and we walk back to the 'lot.' It is a Comfort Inn surrounded by RV's in various lots.

From there we drive a few miles to the rental car.

2nd stop, rental car lot. This time we get a car with less than 2,000 miles.

In the same parking lot is a Jrecks Subs. But BB is hungry and she does not want to have to decide on an un-know food. So we go across the street to Burger King where we know the menu.

When we leave here I start gaining some of my range back before it starts dropping again.

I had planned on heading directly to the hotel without stopping but I get a call and they leave a message so I stop. Another 'robo call' from a company that leaves a message a couple of times a from a different number so that I can not block them.

3rd stop was the oasis at Oneida, I listened to that call and BB had a personal call to make. She was still on the phone when I was ready to go so I left planning to travel slower.

Before we got to this oasis we passed a couple of slow moving drivers but none from here to the hotel. So I just set the cruise at 62 mph and hoped to gain some range. I didn't, I kept loosing range.

BB catches up to me a mile before our exit. A mile or so off the toll road we are at the hotel.

Comfort Inn in Glenmont. We had planned on getting closer to the drop but to save a couple of 10's we stayed closer to Albany.

Cardona's Market is what we picked for food, BB did not want Sonic or the inhouse restaurant. Good pick. I didn't realize that my lasagna was going to have to be made for me. Everything else was being dished up for customers from under the glass. For the desserts, it was ... if you don't see it we don't have it. Lemon bars, 'we don't have it.' Chocolate mousse bars, 'we don't have them.'

So we ordered carrot cake.

While we waited for me food, we had samples of cheese. The caramelized onion cheese was the best of those we tried. Lots of good food. Little hole in the wall, been there since 1945. No place to park, lots of help, lots of customers.

At the end of the day there was one bus on the load board going from NY to CGO. I doubt that one will still be there on Monday. But it means they do not have a hotel full of drivers waiting for buses.

Load board

Tomorrow I will need to fuel, then one hour to the drop. After that we do not have a plan. Family plans for the weekend do not kick in until Saturday night.
