April 16 17 18 19 20 Weather on 16 to 18 was great spring warmth. Sunny and shirt sleeve season. Then the storms came in from the west and south and converge onto the Great Lakes area, Sunday and Monday.
We stopped in Van Buren, Ohio to see our great Buckeye friends. There is a campground called Pleasant View that was not quite open but let us hook up for the night at a winter rate. That was fine with us - we had power and water. And we just wanted to "hang with our friends Bill & Beth". We say that laughingly since Beth's granddaughter asked her to text her after grandma was done hanging with her friends. Hilarious!
Our trip from Ohio to Michigan was uneventful on I75 but just a tip if you are headed to the border ..... When we hit Toledo we always go straight up hwy 23 to Ann Arbor then take I94 to the Ambassador Bridge. Why??? Well interstate 75 in Michigan is so rough your back teeth will be loose let alone every thing in the coach takes a pounding. It's worth the extra few miles.
No issues crossing back into Canada.
We are camped in Erieau which is right on Lake Erie. Not the warmest place in the spring since the lake was completely froze over this winter. It is thawed but will need some warm sunny days to heat the temperature up. And it will have wind. Southside Landing RV Park has good big rig sites, only a dozen of them. At this time of the year we will be all by ourselves. On a good note it is only 10 minutes from my Mom and close to our friends. We both need to get our medical appointments caught up before we can head out on the RV trail again. Yes and see our kids, all 6 of them and 2 grandkids.
