Back in Ottawa
Well, we made it back to Ottawa. We're going to be staying in the motorhome up at Ruth's parents near Arnprior for the next 6 to 8 weeks, and then we'll be taking off towards Mexico for the winter.
I'll post the odd update here during that time period.

Pretty uneventful day today. Drove from Matane, Quebec to Riviere du Loup. Went for a walk along the shoreline just before Riviere Du Loup. Parked up at the Walmart here for the night, along with 19 other RV’s.

We left Campbellton and crossed the big bridge to the beginning of the Gaspe region of Quebec. First thing we wanted to do was to stop at the tourist info place on the other side of the bridge, but we forgot that the time changed back an hour, so we got there a bit before it opened. Waited till 9am, and grabbed a few maps and tour books of the region we will be travelling through.

Sure enough, we had a very peaceful nights sleep parked at the church in Rexton. Until about 6:20am, anyhow. Then, 2 seagulls were having a contest to see which one of them could squawk the loudest and longest without taking a break. It was one of those situations where you’re lying in bed figuring

It took us a couple of hours this morning to get everything stowed away and ready for the road. As I expected, Sherman fired right up, and was good to go.

Last day at Cavendish
Saturday August 9…10:00pm
Well, another rainy morning. The past week has certainly NOT been early August type of weather. Rain of some kind just about every day, and highs around 20C (68F). That global warming theory is certainly not happening around here!

This past weekend was about the busiest the campground has been. I think there were 4 vacant sites last night. Management is pretty good at keeping the partiers away and making it a family atmosphere, but there have been

Another week of nice weather. Yesterday was actually fairly hot…about 28C and a little humid. Haven’t made it into the swimming pool yet though…gotta be over 30C for me to do that.
