Motorhome propane update

Well, Sherman's propane level is down to less than 1/8 of a tank. It's getting chilly now, and although we can easily survive with our little electric heater, I would like to have the propane tank filled up.

Lindsey, Justin and Flying

Yesterday our daughter, Lindsey and son in-law, Justin came to visit us. They left Nova Scotia last Sunday and came to Ottawa via the States, stopping in Bangor, Maine their first night and then stopping a second night

Pots and pans

I hate it when you get good stuff and it just falls apart.

Another Whiskey update

Well, I'm back visiting my Dad for a couple days.  On the way back to his house we made a quick stop at the vet's as it has been three weeks since Whiskey was there last.  She just finished her antibiotics today and she doesn't seem to have made much improvement over the last visit.  She

September 11th

We thought we would do a little tribute to New York City today. We were at the top of the World Trade Centre in October of 2000, only 11 months before the towers fell.

Rust and corrosion

I spent my day off Monday working on Sherman. The main thing I was working on was was the water leaks that occur in the wheelhouse area when driving in the rain.

My Mum

A year ago today I got the dreaded call from my Dad to say that my Mum (I spell it this way as this is how she always spelled it, she was British) had passed away.  We knew it was coming and had for a couple of weeks, it was just a matter of when.

Blog statistics

Ruth mentioned that we are now up to 50 dedicated followers! We think that's a pretty neat milestone.

Leaving for Mexico next month!

Now that it is September, we get to say that we are leaving for Mexico next month! I have a feeling the next few weeks leading up to that will go by very quickly.

Google Adsense update

Our Google Adsense was good to us during the month of August!

Old blog posts and new ideas

Yesterday, I was adding some more of our old travel blog posts to this site so that all our travels could be in one place.  It is a time consuming job, but I am making progress.  I have now completed March 2008.  I am working backwards so I only have 4 1/2 months to go and it will be complete.  I have already started on February 2008's posts today.

C'mon October....

Not trying to rush the summer away, but we are getting closer to getting on the road again, and we miss that so much. We've decided that we'll leave a bit earlier than November 1st.

Update on Whiskey

As I had said in a quick update on Whiskey at the end of the day on our last post, she has a bladder infection and bladder stones.  She had bladder stones once before when she was about 5 years old and she had surgery to remove them.  It would be nice to go that route again because then we know they would be gone, but because of her age it worries us.

Mushrooms and another hike

Well yesterday I was back off to my Dad's place.  Kevin dropped me off in Perth where my Dad met me and then we headed off to his place stopping along the way at one of our usual hiking spots, the Baird Trail just outside of Middleville.

A good RV'ing dinner recipe

We have a few favourite recipes that we make on a regular basis. This one is for Penne and Italian Sausage!
