       Cool rainy morning to start the day just like it usually is when we begin our southern journey. Just puttered around for a while and into Pettigrew's to check our lottery ticket, no winner so back home secure our coach and on the road by 9 am.
       Said good bye to our host John, then on down the road, rained pretty well all day. We stopped at the duty free parking lot, not to shop but make a quick light lunch before customs.
       Got to the Queenston/Lewsiton border crossing and no issues here usual questions, fruit, veggies no, less the than limit on alcohol, we have fish and pork on board, no problem, have a good winter and we were on our way.
short lineup at the border
5 minute wait
     Then down the road to Smokin' Joes,  fuel up the coach $2.09 a gallon and topped up our propane tank. Now we good for a while.
always good prices here
       Before noon we checked into Lazy Lakes resort (we like our free membership camping) and secured a site next to our friends Bill and Barb. He is working today but will be back  later tonight, we will see them on the weekend..
the road in s wonderful,
 nice colors
         We all setup but, an issue with our satellite dish, huge trees in the way. No problem we have 28 channels on our antenna, maybe look at the dish tomorrow in the daylight. So that was put on hold and I whipped into town to stock up our fridge, debit machine, fruit veggies chicken etc.... By  4 pm I am home, supplies secured, cash in pocket, beer in car . Internet and tracfone topped up we are good to go.
nice and secure,still raining
        So for supper an easy fish sandwich done on our Weber Q grill matt, add to a salad and we are good to go for the night.

add the salad and hit the spot
         A short travel day, but we are across the border and all is good. stock up for the road and make a few plans for our trip ahead. As usual it is cold and rainy here almost like every year, Saturday should be nicer(we hope) for the trick or treaters.
         Glad that you dropped in and hope you had a wonderful day as well, with less rain, We in the area until Monday then a dash west to hopefully beat some winter weather.

  7. Better get your water wings on George, we're wearing life jackets over here. We unfortunately are parked on grass and may very well have some problems getting out with the ground being so saturated with water now.

  11. If you have Dish satellite, and are not on either the Atlantic or the Pacific coast, you may be able to get a signal from either their east or their west satellite. When the techs came to change out our broken dish on the roof, they picked the one with the strongest signal. Since I live in Texas, I can receive either.

    1. I have a feeling it will happen again, probably about the same time, will check with Wanderin' I think she may have a plan and we can work it out. Always was nice to meet fellow bloggers. Once we have something together it will be posted and shared I am sure.
