We left

As they say "Shit Happens"

Before we left we took the dogs to the vet for a check up,drugs and needles for the trip and some dental work for Sonny and Cher-----------------------------------------$2,753.00
Then it was our turn-Drugs for 9 months.Blue cross would only pay for 3 months so our share for 6 months---------------------------------------------------------------- $2,048.00
Ok,now lets fill up with fuel------------------------------------- $    565.00
Deposit on House in Mexico------------------------------------ $ 1,500.00
Pay Visa bill which included Europe Cruise for next year $13,485.00
Maybe we should just stay home!

Actually we can't afford to stay home,we have to skip out of here.

We did leave town Friday the 19th but we have had no internet.
I think there is something wrong with our aircard.

We spent the first night in Yorkton Sask at a truck stop that had a parking lot that was not quite up to par












No Damage done.


Then it was off to Winnipeg Man where we stayed a couple of nights at a good Provincial Park.We only had power which is really roughing it for Peg,but she did manage.

We went to the Manitoba Museum,which would probably be interesting if you gave a Rat's Ass about the history of Manitoba.
The Science part of it was a blast as usual and the Beatles Lazer Show was great.



Next it was off to Ontariario where we spent the night at The Terry Fox Statue in Thunderbay.


Then another day of driving till we got to  Cochrane where we found another truck stop where the food sucked.No wonder some truck drivers are cranky.This Husky was way overpriced,bad food and the service was not.
                                                Speaking of overpriced! Only another $500 plus

Wednesday morning we headed down the road to Englehart   where we had a great breakfast.This is the first day that the weather has not been awesome but what the hell,they need the rain.



We arrived at Dale and Karen Chamberlain's in North Bay in the early afternoon and were forced to start drinking right away.Forced against our will I may add.Later, Dale cooked us up a feast and made us drink even more.


We are staying in the Chamberlains driveway but we did not expect all this V.I.P. treatment.
Tonight they have invited a bunch of people over for a fish fry and we will probably be forced into drinking again.
What's a guy to do.
