Camping World, Lockport, Genesee Country

2013 New England, New York, Road Trip, States

Gave another tour of the camper. We thought we’d do fewer of these once we moved out of the teeny teeny tiny trailer but it seems we’re getting more interest that ever before. Once we were on the road we headed to the outskirts of Buffalo and Camping World. It’s sort of a supermarket of camping/RV gear. We found a few fun things that should make life in the T@B even better. From there we decided to skirt Buffalo and head up to Lockport. It’s locale that Steve has been hearing about all his life. His mother visited cousins there many times and Steve remembers visits to Cincinnati by his Great-Aunt Katherine from Lockport. Actually we believe that Third Cousin Peter still lives there. Based on records in the Research Files on our genealogy site we located three addresses associated with family history. As we were leaving town we paused for a phone call and discovered two things. The first is that it is fun to take an ice cream break by just going back to the camper and scooping out some “Everything But The…” and that there was a local AAA office across the street. We took the opportunity to learn more about the area before continuing east and ending the day at the Genesee Country Campground where we met more friendly people who were fascinated with our little trailer.

Burgh House Hampstead

Burgh House Hampstead

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week. We popped over for a bite to eat and to peruse the galleries to learn a little more about Hampstead history.

Wicked The Musical

Wicked The Musical

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
