Good to be Home, eh?

First of all, my apologies for all the errors in yesterday's blog.  We were in a campground (gadzooks!) with no wifi and I had to send it the old fashioned way - thus my inattention to grammar and spelling.

My feeling is that there would be a whole lot less trouble in this world if everyone had the chance to go out into the woods, sit under a tree and enjoy the silence.  It's like giving your soul a good bath.  We have enjoyed some of the most beautiful places these past 7 weeks and it still amazes me that two women - very set in their ways - can exist in a vehicle 10' by 23' and exchange not one impatient word; who are laughing as hard as we did in week 1 (I refer to the Shepherd's Pie shower I took at lunch today) and are still the best of friends - wishing the trip could go on another 7 weeks (Don't panic, Clark - it won't).

Akwasasne Casino

Just before entering Canada again, we travelled through the Aksasasne first nation in upstate New York.  Miles and miles of Casinos, tax free liquor and tobacco shops and bingo halls.  Quite the sight to see.

We crossed the border at Cornwall and are now tucked up in a cozy KOA at Pittston, Ontario. The border crossing was a peek at our passports, 3 questions about what we brought back and then an "Enjoy the rest of your trip, ladies"   It was nice to go back to Kilometres and Celsius and very comforting to see Tim Hortons on every corner.  Our next stop will be Peterborough and Wednesday, on to Sharon where I will slow down at the end of the driveway as Ann hops off.  But I'll think of that on Wed. and enjoy the day and a bit we have left.

Beautiful Vermont

What's been on our iPod this trip?

How's this for eclectic?  Amy Grant, Aerosmith, Johnny Reid, John Denver, Scotty McCreery, Cliff Richard, Josh Groban, Celtic Thunder, Rita McNeil, Elvis, Elton John, Canadian Tenors, George Strait, Tim McGraw and the Morman Tabernacle Choir - you've got to love it!

We had a late lunch today at an incredible Irving Truck Stop just up the road.  They have Beauty and Barber Shops, a video arcade, several stores where you can purchase gifts, snacks and souvenirs; off track betting, a great diner-style restaurant and of course all the auto services - pretty snazzy place - must look like heaven after 12 hours on the road.
