Our last trip of the season

For the first time having the Motorhome, we had a weekend with full hookups.   My but that is nice.   No worries about the batteries, use as much water as you like.   Watch TV, yeah it was nice.   The sad part when driving home, you know it is the last time for the year.   We parked it and cleaned a bit of it out, but found as each day passed we needed something else out of it.   

Tuesday we will be speaking with Owasco and having it winterized, and if the money holds out some work over the winter done on it.   Money Money Money, that should be our licence plate on the MH.   Because it likes money and gas.  Ok perhaps the plate should read Money Gas Money.    Whatever we love her, and will do our best to make sure she has a nice cozy winter.

We will say goodbye and save save save, as I am pretty sure Spring Summer and Fall of 2015 is going to take some money to enjoy our new big Toy.     Oh and that man by the fire is doing his “Thug in a hoodie” impersonation.

Labour day long weekend

We unexpectedly were able to enjoy the long weekend with the Motorhome.   Love it when things like that work out.  

We packed up and were on the road with no problems at all, ok maybe someone forgot to release the emergency brake on the Tracker, but after a couple of feet and a terrible noise, we fixed that little problem.

Bob’s sister Cyndy met us in Picton and we continued on to Quinte Isle Campground.   Hydraulics messed with us a little bit with set up, but we know why and hope it does not cost us an arm and a leg to have that fixed.

We believe that Cyndy enjoyed herself, even with the excitement of a Micro Storm, that was way awesome.   It was not awesome for everyone, unfortunately it was severe and others lost items, including a canopy.   Ambulance was called to the campground which we believe was for a Kite Surfer that got caught on the lake when the storm hit.   Like I said it was a good storm.

Cyndy stayed with us until Saturday evening, we enjoyed her company immensely.    Bob and I spent Sunday resting and took a drive around the area, not like we don’t know it well but it is always a nice scenic drive, and I needed a steeped tea from Tim Hortons.    Monday we stayed later then expected and then enjoyed a nice drive home, after a little scare at the gas station when the Motorhome did not want to start.  Perhaps something else we need to investigate.   

Motorhome is still in the driveway with the fridge on, as we leave again on Friday, for what we are pretty sure is our last weekend out for the season.    A working weekend away, time to clean the carpets for the first time.
