July 12, 2016 - - Another Day of Riding Through Ontario

Copyright by CABS for Reflections Visits Nova Scotia 2016

Wifi here not cooperating. Will not allow me to post from iPad.

I'll keep trying.

Al needed some RV parts. We had name of dealer in town. So to town we went. This guy was a hoot. Has been in business for over 40 years. He has watched the business grow and change. From our Montana experiences and years of trips to Goshen, we knew a few of the people he has dealt with, like Jason Gill from Lippert. He had little nice to say about Lippert. We found the parts.

We asked him about restaurants in town and he told us where to eat. Great recommendation. The restaurant had free wifi. Fast and steady. We took advantage of it and made reservations for next several nights.

Tomorrow night. Levis Quebec.

14 and 15th. Woodstock. New Brunswick. Not NY. LOL

16 th Truru Nova Scotia. We can stay there at least one more night (or more) if we want.

That was enough planning and fighting phone connection. Yes even the phone service is spotty here. Sigh

A quick grocery hit and then back to the campground. Only to find the power going on and off.. Low voltage. Low voltage the campground says they never have. HA!!!! Well we proved it to the thanks to Al's power management system. Oops.

Seriously, this RV stuff is never boring.

Not sure I told you this earlier, but they want 25 cents for a shower. Four minutes induration. I remember why I love my Tana shower. Ahhhhhh

Just have not taken many photos. Think Illinois. Indiana. Michigan. A few hills. Some pretty green in places. A few glimpses of water of Lake Ontario.

We are currently near Thousand Lakes area. Maybe someday spend more time here.

Since I have to walk up to access wifi here I am going to try writing in notes and then copy/paste into FB.

When we were dealing with the "bestest customs dude in Canada" he asked when was the last time you were in Canada? Well that one was interesting. We realized we had never brought Tana here and it had been years before that even.

The last couple of days have reminded us why. The campgrounds are not designed for large rigs. Many campgrounds have no sewer hookups. Many have low power, aka 30 amp if lucky. Lots of 15 amp sites can be found. Level sites may be level, IF you have a tent.

We will probably be practicing our boon docking skills and power and water management skills. Until we cross back into the US.

I'm glad I can go a long time without doing laundry. Also glad that Sir Winston has decided that paper pee pads are fine. I do wish I had brought more with us. We will find a pet store or make do somehow.

We slept in till 9:30. No travel today. Rest and reality day stuff.
