Just anohter busy weekend....

Lots on the go this weekend.... on Saturday Judy and I decided to take a ride in the new Jeep over to Lakefield to a motorcycle show.... usually you would ride your motorcycle to this, however it was cold and overcast, and I wanted to put a few miles on the Jeep to ensure it was working good. We have a limited 30 day warranty on the vehicle, so you want to find any problems before the 30 days are up!

The motorcycle show was at a Harley Davidson Dealers showroom. Our riding club, The Southern Cruisers were there.

There was lots of entertainment, and some vendors selling related stuff...

For the past six months I was used to seeing the flags in reverse order on the pole!

There was a guy that actually jumped this ramp, starting on the right and landing on the truck ramp!
Harley Davidson signs of the times....

They had a bunch of bikes on sale in the showroom.

There was entertainment on going... This was takes very early in the day... they were expecting a big crowd, and in the evening the "Stampeders" were going to play!

We drove back to Orillia and visited Gary and Shelly, (Judy's Brother). We had to do the Jeep comparison thing, as they just bought a brand new Jeep Compas - very cool...

Today we went into Church this morning and met everyone for the first time this year. In the afternoon we visited Angela and Dave in Bracebridge... Lots of yard work going on there....

Judy took a couple pictures of the Canada Geese at our KOA, and the new borns.... there is lots of them, but would not let Judy get very close with the camera.

A bit out of focus, but you can see all the babies...

This next picture is my favorite of the day. We borrowed it off our Daughter's blog, and it is a picture of Kristina rolling blading with Cali.... who is a very high energy dog only about a year old. Kristina is the "Pack Leader" in this house.

Weather looks good for the week!

Till tomorrow....

It's raining again....

Since we have returned from the deep south west and returned to Gravenhurst, the weather has not been all that great.... :-(( Today started out OK and I spent the morning at the RV and worked on the new Jeep for the morning. Lots of cleaning I wanted to do, and found time to give the Jeep a wax job.... gotta keep it looking good!

Went into Gravenhurst to do a bit of Canadian Tire Shopping, and then headed out to Taboo for an economic update compliments of RBC Dominion Securities. They invited me out to get caught up on the World economic events that have recently happened.... Greece mainly.... not a pretty story....

Did watch Montreal beat Pittsburg last night.... that was nice...

That's about it for today, other than I told you I would post a picture of my new command central.... problem is, it is real easy to fall a sleep in..... not good for blogging....

Supposed to rain again tomorrow I think....

Till tomorrow...

It's a JEEP thing.... You wouldn't understand.....

A busy day today. Judy arranged to take the day off work so she could come down to Burlington to keep me company as we picked up the new Jeep. Turned out to be a nice day here up north, but overcast and cooler in the big city.

We had some problems getting away this morning with our existing car, but quickly overcame them and were on our way down to the big city. Again, "Thanks CAA"

The folks at J. P. Motors in Burlington were simply excellent to deal with and took care of everything quickly and efficiently. They had us on our way in 1/2 an hour in the new wheels, and they had them all spiffed up and ready to go... ya, the new jeep kind of matches the colour of our motorcycle trailer...

We left the dealership, and headed just a couple blocks away to go to IKEA. Judy had wanted to look for a new chair for the motorhome, and we found a nice black POANG Chair and new foot stool.... see tomorrow's blog for pics...



We had lunch at IKEA.... wow , can you ever eat cheap there! Also, take note... there is no recession at IKEA.... everybody and his brother was there today spending money.... I think the new Jeep will look good being pulled by the motorhome... our world is very black and grey...

The new Jeep ran great on the way home full of our new purchases that we would have had problems trying to fit into the old Grand Am...

Here is a side profile... tomorrow might get a chance to put a coat of wax on the new beast if the weather co-operates...

We sure enjoyed the ride home in the new beast. I have had t20 Jeeps in the past, and liked them both. It is nice to have another one... kind of a guy type thing... aurg....aurgggg......

Till tomorrow....
