Can't Seem to Head East

We are still ‘stuck’ in western Maryland waiting on our mail.  Tomorrow will be the tenth business day and that is supposed to be the limit for mail forwarding, though Lori (the pessimist) says we will get it Monday.  We did get to venture to Fort Frederick and to see some more of the C&O Canal. 

I’m thinking I would like to get a through hike in on the tow path but, at 184 miles, it is 6 days one-way though there are plenty of camp sites along the path. The downside to all this is that being at a campground on a day-to-day reservation means that you will get bounced around on sites. Hagerstown KOA has been very accommodating and we were on one site for the first three days. 

Today we got the word we were bumped as our site was reserved for a four-day weekend by a camping group but the hostess moved us to a site that was open through the weekend so we would not have to move if we get ‘stuck’ here a couple of more days.  The site we were moved to is a ‘deluxe’ site (You get patio furniture at the site– I don’t see the big deal) and we are a bit closer to the creek so the view is much better.
Because a front is moving through tomorrow they are predicting some heavy rain tomorrow and I’m thinking even if the mail is in that we stay the additional day to avoid driving through torrential rain.  Sounds like a plan ‘C’ in the making.
