On the road again...

Yes, folks, RVlifeonwheels is back on the road again after a beautiful summer in Woodstock, Ontario. We hit the road at 9:00 on Monday morning, heading for Mallory Town, which is just west of Brockville, Ont. just off Hwy. 401.

Could not blog last night, as we stayed out on my Cousin Marion's Farm, and old Ma Bell just does not shoot out those internet rays far enough to work... Also we had a problem with Hurricane Sandy! It hit Ontario!. We had very strong winds last night, lots of rain, and at 9:00 p.m. the power went out, and did not come back on to 9:00 this morning! So, I just gave up on trying to blog last night, and just enjoyed time with my Uncle Art, who is a very young 92, and my Cousin Sue. Cousin Marion, and her Hubby, Peter are actually over in Tiawan visiting their Daughter!

Uncle Art tells me that the key to his long life is making sure he takes time each day to enjoy a couple beers, so being the kind of guy I am, I joined him! We talked about everything from A to Z, and then enjoyed a nice Chili Dinner that Cousin Sue prepared for us!

 

They keep 3 of the neighbour's horses on the farm, Sue is petting the Colt, but the other horses get a little jealous and give Sue a push away!

This morning we enjoyed coffee on the farm with everyone, and then headed up the road in the Jeep for Ottawa. They were heavy into pumpkins at the Hollinger Homestead.

Emmie was off at school, but Paige was here to say hi to Pop Pop!

Emmie soon made it home from School, and was excited by the sticker books Judy brought with her.

Right after dinner, we had to take Paige over to swimming lessons... nice complex, no pics allowed inside!

Tomorrow is a big day for the kids of course, and we will be staying until Thursday. Then it is back on the road as we head south.

Till tomorrow...

  1. We left Phaeton Place at Rideau Acres in Kingston while we are up in Ottawa for some appointments. We'll see you on I-81 on Thursday too! We are hoping to make Harrisburg the same day. Still some snow in VA.

    Safe travels.
