We left Ocean City and traveled to Connellsville PA. We’re staying at a resort called Blue Canoe. It’s a great resort. Right on the bike trail, right on the river, 3 pools, including one adult pool and hot tub. On site restaurant and ice cream shop. Bike, kayak and tube rentals with a shuttle that will take you up river so you can float or paddle down. The sites are good sized and the upgraded ones have concrete patios. I never thought I cared about that but it is really nice to have. Especially when you compare it to “Lake Basle” after every rain storm in OC.

The only down side to this resort is getting here. We used “RV Safe” GPS and it took us on this road called “Coolspring Jumonville Rd” Jay called it Jumanji road. It was SO windy, up and down through the mountains. I would recommend avoiding it if you can. The plus side to that is after making it through Jumanji road, the entry into the campground didn’t seem so bad. There are a couple of sharp turns on Adelaide Rd so if you come in another way, just be prepared.

This week was back to work for us. Before we knew it, it was Friday. Jay and I realized that this weekend is the first weekend alone since we started this adventure. If we have more like this we might stay on the road forever. 🙂

On Saturday we rented an e-bike for me (that’s a long story but moral is do not buy a Jasion bike). Jay and I had a great time on the Great Alleghany Passage (GAP), the rails to trails bike path that runs through the campground. We road 14 miles. We stopped a couple scenic overlooks. Even found a nice place for lunch in town. Called Kickstand Kitchen. The summer salad was great! It was a really fun time and we can’t wait to put more miles on our bikes.

There’s some pretty cool art work along the trail as well.

On Sunday we went to Ohiopyle State Park. Again we found a great spot for lunch, Ohiopyle House Cafe. Great smash burgers. Then we went across the street and played ion the rocks n the river for a bit. Since we suck at taking pictures, we didn’t get any but here’s one I found online.

We still prefer the Baker River in New Hampshire but this was a fun experience. I’m glad we got a chance to check it out.

We’ll be working again this week and then it’s off to Michigan. Now that we’re finally caught up with posts, I hope to stay on schedule ( notice I didn’t say “promise”).
