May 14 GMC Heritage Cruisers at our park

Well it's been a month since we have been in the home area and I think we have a couple more weeks and then our "to do appointments" and "family/friends to see list" will be whittled down.
This posting is for our motorhome guru Ray, he knows everything about any motorhome you ask him!   This past weekend in our park here in Leamington there were about 20 classic GMC  motorhomes in for a club rally - GMC Heritage Cruisers.  Take a look at cool retro paint jobs and unique toads too.  Thought you might find a few pics interesting.  Billy especially liked the Triumph, thought it was the coolest toad(towable) we have seen yet.

April 13 Friday Home Today

Weather:  Sunny but cool about 60 and close to 39 at night.
The Bluewater Bridge at Port Huron was a breeze.   As we got closer on I94 there were more and more Snowbirds coming to the border.   We just fell in line with them and Billy was so happy that there were 3 big sized lanes crossing.  No construction!  Our Canadian Customs officer only asked a couple of questions.....  How long away?  Did we have any "unopened liquor" or tobacco?  We had open bottles but he was not interested in that.   What was the value of our purchases?   Then "Have a nice Day" and away we went. :)
We camped out at the farm for the weekend in the driveway and looked for a campground that we could take for the season.   Then we can have a place to come and go from.   Turns out there were really only 2 places worth thinking about.   Leamington had Sturgeon Woods Campground & Marina and Rondeau Shores had Wildwood.   There were many more pro's for us to go to Leamington and financially it was a better place too!!!   Gotta love that.
new campsite @ Sturgeon Woods
 Had a few friends and family already pop out to see us.  That part of home is great.   
My brother came to visit - don't we look alike?
