Are we there yet?Are we there yet?Are we there yet?

This is from the other day when we were stuck in the traffic jam. It was so classic. She was just straing out the window. Reminded us of a kid. If she could speak we knew she would have asked us "Are we there yet?"
Hey there everyone! We are still hanging out in here in Pennsylvania trying to figure out what there is to see and do. Yesterday we went to the town of Hershey where the BIG Hershey chocolate factory is. It is very interesting how they advertise it as "free" but once you get there you find out that they charge you for everything that you want to do except for breathe. We were able to take this little Disney type ride that explains the process of how the candy is made and of course it dumps you off in the gift shop. It was fun to see all of the candy that they make and of course we spent our money on buying candy for us and t-shirts for the boys instead of going to amusment type things. This is very much geared toward kids so if you are ever in the area with your young families this would be a great place to go. After we finished there we drove the rig to another RV park here in Carlisle, PA which was about 40 miles. This place is a lot better than the one we were in the night before. It

Here is Chocolate World. This was the entrance. Cute huh?
is very wide open so we have plenty of room but best of all we have satellite! Karlie really likes it here because she can run wild in all the grassy areas that they have.

After a good nights sleep we took off for York, PA today to go to the Harley Davidson factory. They offer a tour and so we thought it would be interesting to see how they are made. We weren't disappointed. The tour lasts about an hour and they take you from beginning to end in the making of a bike. They even show you how they test drive them in this specialized computer booth. It is really quite interesting seeing as they can do this without putting any gasoline in them. After the tour they have bikes on display and so Don picked out the one that he wanted. Those are what the pictures are of. Again, they wouldn't allow photo's on the tour so that is why I don't have many. Dang!

Tomorrow we are heading to Gettysburg to see the battlefields. Karlie is going to daycare. It is supposed to be warm here so we figured it would be best for

Brings back memories
Remember when the Comm Ed group road "harleys" for the Halloween dressup and you were a motorcycle mama behind Brian? That's what I thought of when I saw Don's picture...was looking for a picture of you sitting on that big boy!
