I left Weaverville Tuesday, May 14 on my Triumph Scrambler. I spent the first night in Chesapeake, VA. Wednesday, I rode to Atlantic City, New Jersey. I crossed the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel and rode the Cape May – Lewes Ferry. It is 17.6 miles long and when the road enters the tunnels, it looks like it ends and that you would drive off into the water.
I spent Wednesday and Thursday nights in Atlantic City in the Hard-Rock Hotel Casino. Thursday, I rode to Philadelphia. I went to Revzilla, and I had Philly Cheesesteak from a small sidewalk stand in an old section of town.
On Friday, I rode to Hamptons Bay on Long Island, NY. Although I came through New York City early in the afternoon, the traffic on the parkway out to Long Island was horrible. It was stop and go for about 2½ hours. Saturday, May 18, I took the Cross-Sound Ferry from Long Island to New London, CT and rode to Dennis, MA on Nantucket. My two sisters and two nieces and families had rented a house in Dennis for a few nights.
The reason we are all in the Boston area is to go to graduation at Boston University. On Sunday, May 19, 23 watched as my niece, Tiffany Shelton, received her Master of Athletic Training degree.
