The old road winding roads that follow the topography of the Berkshire Mountains are a relief from the roads in south Florida. The dense wall of deciduous trees gives the scene a softer look. It is not just the scenery that brings relief; the pace if different. Some people are in a hurry to get to their destination but they are more courteous about being in a hurry. The road ways are not filled with car ducking and diving through the lanes of traffic going 75 mph. After months traveling our sailboat where 7 knots is fast (1 knot + 1.15 mph) driving in traffic going 75 mph seems REALLY fast.

We have had a wonderful time visiting family. My parents are doing well in the Berkshire Mountains in Massachusetts. Hunter's family is well and is planning a trip to visit us next Christmas. The boat delivery was fun and uneventful, except for catching a white marlin, a few tuna and a kingfish.

We are packing our bags for our flight back to Trinidad.
