Gardiner, NY

We’ve officially started our cross-country winter escape! We left yesterday, Sunday, and headed to Gardiner Brewing Company and Wright Farm. We joined Harvest Hosts, and this was our first stay at one of the host places. We left later in the day as we’d planned to, so we didn’t leave much time to to check out the brewery. And after finally finding the parking spots for RVs well up the hill in the orchard, we opted for our Treehouse beers in the RV.

We had a few mishaps to start the trip. It wouldn’t be a true Ben and Megan adventure without them. I’ve rigged a fix for the electric brake controller which lost connection to the truck’s ground. The generator does not like us running the TV and microwave together. (There’s something fishy about that generator, we haven’t figured out what. We’ve used a lot of propane already…).

The reviews did not lie that the view is amazing at these RV spots. I got to practice some night photography,

I’ve got to work on the sharpness. Lot of time to practice before Joshua Tree. The constellations were out early. We got to see them well before the moon rose. I could get the 7 sisters and Orion in one shot, but Cassiopeia wouldn’t fit.

Ben took photos while I set up my camera. He says I’m in a spotlight here, like I’m about to be abducted. Lucky for him, I’m still here. =)

The morning Cody walk was pretty nice, too! We knew we were out in the middle of a field when we arrived, but we couldn’t see much since it was already dark. This photo below is my favorite for this spot.

Ben got some shots when he went out later. Cody got a lot of time outside here. They had their own Stonehenge, though we didn’t get the story there.

We got a few items at the farm’s market. Think Holmberg’s on a slightly larger scale. On to the next spot!
