September 18, Thursday: On the road again traveled to Mystic, Connecticut. This town was noted for being the biggest ship building seaport during 1700 to 1868.
We traveled south on another red road Hwy 131. Now the map does not say this is scenic but we think so. Hwy 131 turns into Hwy12 which parallels I395. We opted to stay on 12 because it was an OK road and much more to look at while driving. Arrived at our campground after "Mildred", our GPS in the RV, got us turned around. Now we have told you how helpful she can be but when she cannot find the address it can get complicated. Not mentioning the colorful language I can use when dealing with her! We finally found the place after a phone call, looking at the map, and finally letting Larry use his sense of direction.
Seaport Campground is very nice and spacious. It has water and electric only. Set up camp, loaded the dogs in the car to drive down to Mystic. We were looking for a vet. Now, I programed "Henrietta" our GPS in the car with the address. Where she took us was a residential house. NOT a good day with GPS! Oh well, our appointment is not until tomorrow we will just play Scarlet O'Hara and worry about tomorrow. Drove down a street which ended at a small little harbor. Several people were parked to watch the sunset so we joined them. Talked to a couple who informed us we were no longer in Mystic but Stonington. Asked them about the vet and found out it was in the town of Pawcatuck. Now I know what some of you are thinking, if I put the correct info into the GPS it might work better. However, I refuse to discuss the matter anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heading for bed with out the help of GPS!
Good Night!
