Paint Your Wagon

At last nights stay, we met Lola, a twin sister to Tatanka. We had a good conversation with Lola’s owners, comparing likes and dislikes about our Vista 26 P motorhomes.

We left Milford and headed through Detroit and across the bridge into Canada. This effort was very confusing. The signing and Google Maps both were not helpful. We were led into a massive gas station where some guy in an orange vest guided us through to what we assumed was an unmanned toll booth. Les tried several times to reach out the motorhome window and down to the card reader to swipe the credit card with no success. Jill finally got out and used her card and the gate finally opened. We got over the bridge and to the port of entry for Canada where they were changing people for lunch. A little wait…no hard questions, except how many nights we are staying?

We hope this will be a shortcut to avoid several large cities and their traffic to the south of Lake Erie through Ohio and Pennsylvania. We gassed up at a truck stop ($1.39.9/Liter or around 6 dollars). There was an A&W at the truck stop, so while Jill made up a tuna salad, Les went to the A&W to get a root beer float. Since it was not listed on the menu, he asked the guy if they made the float. THEY DON’T MAKE THEM ANYMORE! So Les bought a root beer and made his own float with the Cookie dough ice cream in the RV. That’s part of the fun traveling in an RV.

We stopped for the night early at Rondeau Provincial Park. Since it was still early, we took a 8 mile bike ride out to the end of the peninsula. The park is located on a peninsula between Rondeau Bay and Lake Erie.En savoir plus
