Apartment Inspections in Newburgh Zone

Today we are getting to see the country side some more. We have been to several new places and drove thru many new places. Very green and lush. It is nothing like driving thru any of the western states. The further away from the city of New York you go the further away from the cultural melting pot. We enjoy inspecting apartments cause we get getter acquainted with the Elders, we see the countryside and Doug gets to use his tools and handyman skills, and we try somewhere new and fun to eat. We cross over the Hudsen river a couple of times and are always having to pay a toll. What's up with that. That's something we never have to do in Utah. Probably because there are no huge rivers with huge bridges. There are tolls just to be able to go into a city or drive on a certain freeway. They get you coming and going. I'll bet we went thru about a dozen tolls. The scenery is beautiful, but I miss our good old Utah mountains.

In the town of Kingston, we spent some time looking around for apartments for rent. We are to find an apartment for the new couple missionaries from Washington that will be here the first of October. Senior couple are needed so badly in the mission field. Well it is almost 10:00 pm and we have 32 miles till home. Some days seem longer than others.
