That's so funny! All of my male cousins in PA drink Yuengling. I'm so glad your home and safe.
It sounds like you had a wonderful trip! It was a pleasure to meet you and your lovely family!
That's my neighbour's husband's favourite brew. It is pretty good, tho' I prefer Guinness myself (only once in a while - I have to homeschool and do other domestics).
Your trip sounds exactly as it should: adventurous!
The trip was fun. But I wish I could have just appeared in PA without all the driving! :-)

I'm still not caught up on vacation laundry, and we've been home a week.
So glad to be one of the lucky 33!
Alice stole my comment. Why is she always one step ahead of me? (actually it's more like 1000 miles ahead of me, but at least I know I'm on the right path :)
I too am so grateful to have been one of the blessed 33. Meeting you and your sweet family was one of the highlights of my trip. I've got to start planning a visit to NE...I'll bring Yuengling...and bananas, of course.
So glad you are home, safe and sound.
WOW, that is a long trip. How neat that you could summarize those little details.
Sounds wonderful!
