ELEVEN DAYS AT THE CAMPGROUND

Eleven days down and not sure how many to go?????????

Down at the HUB

Joe playing pool by himself

These two are never far from one another

Here's our TV

Right now we get 1 channel out of London

Tomorrow is a big day for us

Shaw Direct is coming to 

'hook us up'

We will use Shaw at the cottage as well

Up the road from the campground is

Kettle Point

A First Nations Reservation

There is a restaurant there called

Lucky Seven

We are planning on going there this evening for a pickerel dinner

Must say they also have really good butter tarts!

We met our son Curt and his wife Christina there last Friday night

We put out bread crusts for the squirrel 

Yesterday we bought bird seed 

Two birds came this morning

While we were in Corunna  this week we drove down to the river

It looks pretty cold over there on Stag Island

The island opens the first Friday of April

We'll see if the ferry will be running

and

If the water is turned on????

Well one of these day we'll have our little boat back at Pier 90

I took this photo for my son-in-law Rod and grandson Beau

As a teenager Rod played for the Mooretown Flags

Beau started  his 'hockey career' at the rink

Rod also played baseball

He's in the front row at left

To Rod's left is his friend Craig

Craig is married to our niece Chrissy

Small world

Tuesday was a mild day

Lots of melting snow

Whoa...one big puddle!

It was a good day for us

The sewer was hooked up and we had running water in the trailer

Late in the day it turned from a good day to not so good a day

When we tried to fill the hot water tank with water we found it had a hole in it

The water came out of the tank and into the bottom of the trailer

We used every towel we had to mop up

It was actually warn enough that we were able to have the door open for awhile

The cats could get some fresh air

During the night a transformer blew

Some of the park was affected 

We happened to be a part of that

Fortunately the site next to us was ok

Maintenance got a long extension cord and hooked us up

While the power was still out we decided to go up to the Lucky Seven for breakfast

Ha...........it is the only restaurant at Kettle Point and wouldn't you know they were closed for the day as the cooks were taking a course

BUT

I wonder if they were able to travel as we had another winter storm come in

By the time we got back to the trailer we were hooked up to hydro 

We had breakfast at home!!

WHAT A DAY WHAT A DAY

The gray water backed up so we had more mopping to do 

It was soooooo cold

It was so windy

Blowing and drifting snow everywhere

We did have sun come in the windows on Thursday so that was nice for Gwennie

The wind was down and it was not quite so cold

On to today..................

Much warmer

Joe out with the shovel clearing the sewer area

Hydro arrived this morning to install a new transformer

Hydro was shut off for a couple of hours so we decided to go for a walk around the park

This is the HUB

We spend quite a bit of time here during the day using the internet

The past two evenings we have come down to watch TV

It looks like this guy and gal stayed out all winter

This guy looks more at home in the snow

Pretty soon happy laughing children will be sitting on the swings

We found another area where trailers 

would hook up

Rod's family came to Ponderosa years ago when he was a youngster

Once again

Small world

Who would have thought we would be here today?????

The stage used for concerts during the summer

What a fun park

Ah...........a Titanium

We had one a few years ago

HA HA HA HA

There we are!!!!!!!

Lots of signs

These people must know Ken

They all have something in common

We first heard the bird

It is a red winged black bird

Come spring there will be many at the cottage

It is going to be awhile before these folks can get out their door

I would sure try out this slide if I were here in the summer

Gwendolyn loves the snow!!

Never did I think I would be wearing this ol' winter coat again

But

I kept it

Just in case!

It has to be at least 20 years old

It is down filled

Best Ever
