We left the Niagara Falls/Buffalo area on Friday morning and headed along Lake Erie on I-90 to Erie, PA, where we turned south toward Pittsburgh on I-79.  Crossing the West Virginia state line near Morgantown, we picked up I-68 through western Maryland.  By then we had travelled about 400 miles and were ready to stop, but there were no sites available at Rocky Gap State Park in MD or at the KOA in Hagerstown.  We ended up at Happy Hills Campground near Hancock.  It was a place primarily used by permanent residents with just a few sites for transients. Our site was basically a gravel pad, but it did have water and sewer hookups so we were able to empty tanks before heading home.  The park was noisy with golf carts and ATVs well into the evening, but it quieted down enough to allow a good night's sleep.

The last stretch of the trip was only about 5 hours of driving, so we arrived home after 2900+ miles at around 2:00.  The afternoon was spent emptying the RV and unpacking.  Much cleaning awaits tomorrow, but tonight it will be nice to sleep in our own (larger!) bed.
