This morning we got up at 5:30 am as we wanted an early start for our drive back to Philly. We had a false start but soon we were back on the road. The wait at the border was minimal and after a few questions we were back in the US. The drive through northern New York was easy, very little traffic and the trees are just starting to change color.
As we approached Philly, the traffic backed up. Ahead we could see the base of a large wind generator being transported on the freeway, taking up 3 lanes at a time. Traffic tried to funnel to one lane to get around this moving obstruction. Once we got around the freeway opened up completely. I can't imagine the impact on rush hour traffic later in the day.
We drove to our hotel at the Philly airport and dropped off our luggage before returning the rental car to the Amtrak station on 30th street and taking the commuter rail back to the airport and then the shuttle to the hotel. we looked to see if We could catch another episode of Boardwalk Empire but no joy.
Tomorrow we fly to Tennessee to visit Chris and Kathy Quemore.
So far our trip has included a ferry ride, trains, automobiles, commuter rail and tomorrow planes.
