Last night we stayed with friends in Connecticut. Time spent socializing and dining out was more fun than posting to this blog, so my entry was postponed until now. Our friends prepared lattes and a nice breakfast for us this morning and I availed myself of their abundance of hot water by using their shower.
We are now driving our final leg into our 12th state in 8 days – Little Rhody. We plan to provision at Trader Joe’s and then head home with some mixed feelings. The week has been interesting and enjoyable for the most part, but driving many miles practically every day is tiring. Thankfully we’ve both been sleeping well in our comfortable bunk and preparing satisfying meals in our efficient galley.
Driving haRVy has proven to be less taxing and more comfortable than anticipated. A lot of that has to do with the design of the front seats. I had been worried about that aspect, but both the driver and passenger areas offer many adjustments to alleviate fatigue. The driver’s seat even has pump-up lumbar support. If I put my feet up on the dashboard I can stretch my legs out straight like on a BarcaLounger and it doesn’t even impede on the driver’s visibility. We both appreciate that the seats are supportive yet not too hard and that they are cloth covered rather than vinyl or leather, both of which can be cold or hot and sticky.
