Northumberland County

Today I get to go see my daughter Annie and her family. Annie, Chris and the kids moved out here last fall and I haven’t seen them since. Chris’s parents bought a RV Park and Annie and Chris moved out here to help them with it. So today I take the drive down to visit with them for the day. I haven’t seen my grandson, Sullivan, since he was born in February.

The drive down to where they are is about an hour and 15 minutes. Once again, the scenery is beautiful! You don’t see much traffic on the back roads and even the highways are not congested like in southern Ontario. I make it there and finally get to see everyone. Chris has to work for a couple of hours, so Annie and I can catch up. Gideon, who is 2.5 years, and I play Frisbee and I get to hold Sullivan for the first time. Gideon is a bundle of energy and Sullivan is a very happy little guy! We head inside for a bit to cool off and catch up on stuff.

The RV Park is right on the river and this is going to be a place to raise the kids. They have tons of room to run around! It is a slower pace out here and people are much more friendly and helpful. It is a little isolated since they are outside the town but that adds to the peace and tranquility.

Afterward we head down to a restaurant for a late lunch. I have forgotten what it was like to have two small children. I’m so glad that I am past that stage of life. I don’t have the energy or patience anymore. However, that said it is nice to see them all again.

I head back to pack up, tomorrow I head further down the road.Leia mais
