TN8 plan – revised<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nSpeaking of plans for the TN8, they have been significantly revised – not because of the unexpected arrival of COVID but because I have decided to leave Rusty behind, with my son. Planning hotel stays with a dog – especially an elderly, incontinent dog – became too difficult. So Ooma has graciously thrown out all of her previous bookings and has booked new stays in hotels where we don’t have to accommodate a dog. That will save a few bucks (though less than I will be giving to my son to care for Rusty) and also frees up some precious storage space in the Toyota.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking of Toyota, it is ready to go. The body repair work was more that satisfactory – the cruise control is once again functional – and she is sporting two new Cooper tires on the front. A thorough mechanical inspection at the Toyota dealership revealed no other problems She got a new infusion of oil, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The most significant hotel switch is the one in New York City. Ooma found a hotel on Staten Island rather than in New Jersey. I have never stayed on Staten Island before and am looking forward to at least one trip on the Staten Island ferry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Besides a whole new set of hotels, I have altered the plan to approach New York City via Pennsylvania rather than New Jersey (though, of course, I can’t avoid NJ entirely). I just don’t like the New Jersey Turnpike. Boring, busy and expensive. I would rather approach via the relatively bucolic I-80. But that is just the current plan and routes have a way of changing. We will see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
