Hunting for a Tombstone

June 14 to 21/2019  Weather  is low 70's and cool nights at 50's.  It's not quite tshirt and shorts weather yet.  We are off to Kitchener/Waterloo again to see our grandson.  How lucky we are to take our home with us.  Everyday we will see little Aiden.  Once again we are staying at The Landings in Petersburg.  It is only 8 kilometers from their house.  So everyday we get to play, play, play.

After our fun week we headed 40 miles across to Mitchell area.  Friends of ours have a park model in Woodlands Lake RV Resort.  Its quite a big seasonal park and they do have a row of pull thrus that are way at the back of the park.   Takes about half an hour to come in and wind your way to the sites but they sure were quiet !!!!!   Oh and lots of trees.  And mosquitos!!!!  

the campsites are situated around small Woodland Lake

Our site was long and level and we had two nice big evergreens that we parked between.   Billy walked around our rig a couple of times and said..... we can't open.  What?  Oh jeez.    Oh well, it's only for two nights and we were there to visit our friends not sit in the coach anyways.   Don and Annie called us on the cell phone to find out our whereabouts... and we said "funny thing is we are in the Trinity Cemetery in Mitchell".  Don says "you are where?"
So the story is that Billy has been chasing his family tree down and found that he had a great grama and great great grama in Mitchell.  It was important to him to find the stone and we did find it!!!! Which was super exhilarating.   The stone had his great great grandparents, with their two daughters (great grama and great aunt).

We recorded all the information and took some pictures, next time we come up this way we want to look for the home that they lived in for 75 years.    Finding the grave was so emotional as it unlocked some family information that Billy was hoping to find. 

Take our Home with Us

May 21/2019  Weather = Ugh!  that is ugh for ugly.  The worst spring we have ever come home to.  Oh well.  Mother Nature will do whatever she wishes.  Our health is good and our family is good so we will live with the cold wet spring.  Today was sunny (59 high and low of 45) and we headed out to Kitchener, Ontario to see our little grandson who is now 8 months old!  He is awesome:)  This summer we will spend a week every month visiting him.  It sure is handy when you can take your own little home with you. 
We are staying in an RV Park called The Landings.  It has 3 big pull thrus.  Not like cruising around the States where you can find a suitable Big Rig park every 100 miles.    You need to do some reconnaissance before pulling into a campground in Ontario.  Check and double check that you will fit into these parks and sites.
