THIRTY SOME DAYS AT THE CAMPGROUND

Four weeks down and hopefully less than two weeks of 'winter' camping left
EVEN THOUGH......
They say it is spring!!!!!

Not a lot to report in this blog
Mostly scenery and pet pictures


One afternoon we took a drive through
 Kettle Point
In the foreground is Lake Huron

We were surprised to see this ol' sailboat
It would have been a beauty in its' day


Gwennie is making some noise as Joe reads the Airstream manual
I wonder what he is looking up.......
Ha......
It could be a number of things!!


We were driving back to the campground from Forest when we noticed the sun going down
Turned the truck around so we could get 
a better shot
As you can see the farmer's field is covered in ice

Woke up one morning to see Susie sleeping with Gwendolyn
The heat vent would have been the reason for the snuggling


A new purchase for the airstream
So far we've had chili and pork stew
Sure does the trick!!!!!!!


ST. PATRICK'S DAY
We met friends and their friends for lunch
I had my first pint of Guinness beer
Not as 'bad' as I thought it would be
Kinda warm though!!!!
Came across the geese 
They were huddling near the open water

After lunch we all went to the Pinery for a walk through the woods


I have always had a fondness for birch trees


Miss Gwendolyn is one popular girl!!!!

Waiting for the RV repairman to arrive
He will hook up the new hot water heater
This is where we had the 'flood' when the old heater cracked
You might know Bing would be there
He doesn't miss a trick



ROCK N' ROLL
SLIP AND SLIDE
I was making coffee
Joe was doing dishes
Gwennie was standing in the middle of us
The ice melted under the wheels causing it to roll backwards
HOLY COW
It startled us
and
Gwendolyn went into a shaking mode
Joe now has to repair the tongue/post before he can crank it up


We drove down to the end of Ipperwash Road
In the summertime cars actually drive out on the beach

A few tundra swans coming in for a landing
Normally at this time of year there are thousands of swans at 'the bog' near Grand Bend
This is a stopover on their migration

Photo taken through the window
As I had mentioned in a previous blog there are several stray cats here at the campground
This kitty has found her way to our place
We have been leaving some food out for her
and
Also leave food out at night near the dumpster for whoever is around at that time
Kitty will not let me near her
but
I talk to her and she is starting to talk back
She will meow then grrrrrrs

  1. Oh wow the adventures and experiences you all have ! You can truly save there's never a dull moment ;) lol Gwennie is very popular because she's like a hot water bottle. I know this from experience ! I love the picture of the birch tree as well. I pray spring like weather arrives soon for all our sakes. Lots of love, hugs & kisses for Gwennie. x0x0x0x0x0

  2. Hey Di, what a trial living in the Airstream, or so it seems. Wish you could stay at the farm! DB :)

  3. I giggled through the whole thing, the crockpot made me laugh for some reason, it just seems all funny to me that you are living like this and seem to be fine!? jor

  4. Looking at your surrounding, crockpot cooking looks like the perfect solution. jor is right; all your trials with the new to you MH, and the two of you take it in stride. I also hope spring arrives SOON! It is getting pretty quiet here, lots of people leaving today & tomorrow.
