The final night and we are sad. We did another 600 miles today and arrived at a KOA in Streetsboro, Ohio. It is a decent KOA with a brand new pool, that closes at 8:00pm and is then padlocked behind a fence… very un-KOA-like. The comfort stations are nice and seem on the newer end. Coralie bypassed the comfort stations for the first time ever and chose a RV shower over the facilities offered. We had a fire and smores on the final night but it wasn’t the same. The heat and humidity of the east coast time zone are back, as are the mosquitoes. Tomorrow we make the last little push home, and the sad journey will be complete. Tonight I can’t help but think of a quote I saw a the Devils Tower Welcome Center…
“If a man was starving, he was poor in spirit and in body, he went into the Black Hills. The next spring he would come out, his life and body would be renewed. So, to our grandfathers, the Black Hills was the center of life, and those areas all around it were considered sacred, and were kept in the light of reverence.”
