It Feels Good !

Our Location Today, Middlebury, Indiana, U.S.A.

Even though we haven't travelled that far from our home base it still feels good to be on the road again with our trailer for the first time this season. Unfortunately Kathy has been hestitant on taking pictures of the trip because she is too busy making certain our GPS is bringing us safely to our destinations.

Sunday being a short run we decided on a late departure time so we made arrangements to meet our travelling companions Gerry and Sandy Bronstien on the Canadian side of the Ambassador bridge so we could eat lunch before making the normally short crossing but long inspection at immigration. The surprise was that it flowed fairly quickly and we were on our way in less than twenty minutes. A First!

After stopping for groceries we had checked in to the Campground by 3:00 but here is where our day turned sour. The person that escorted us to our pull-through sites brought us in from the wrong side. When he tried to rush me into my site I just took my time and eased in with no problem. Unfortunately when he rushed Gerry at manuevering into a tight spot misfortune struck. Even though Gerry made a Textbook turn there was a tree by the edge of the road that stopped everything.

This put a damper on the remainder of the day. If the guide had brought us into our sites from the proper direction of the pullthrough and not rushed Gerry this would not have happen but on the other hand we are in control of our vehicles and are responsible for its movement.

Monday morning we pulled out around 9:30 and drove to General RV in White Lake Michigan to have warranty work completed on our trailer. The paper work took longer than the actual work so we didn't leave until just before lunch.

A stop at a nearby Applebee's for lunch and we were back on the road headed for Elkhart / Middlebury Indiana KOA. The roads were busy but not crowded so it made the trip relaxed and unrushed.  As mentioned earlier Kathy was busy keeping the GPS honest where it is set to avoid Toll Roads it kept trying to send us on them. With only two stops one for nature calls and once for fuel we arrived and were safely set-up by 6:00.

Once we had levelled  had a snack for supper we finally managed to unwind and enjoy our first cold but enjoyable campfire of the year. We also met and shared our fire with Horace and Francis who were up from Florida. They are here having repairs to their Motor Home done at the factory because everytime their dealer tried to fix the problem it came back worse.

After repeated requests to Ron Bunge at the Hitchitch forum It's about time has now been added to this Great RV Forum, Due to unkown Internet we'll do our best to keep you posted of our adventures as they happen. Be Safe and Enjoy!

It's about time.
