Saturday was great Sunday even better!

Where are we today ?

Rock Glen Resort Arkona Ontario Canada

        Last night after supper the wagon rides around the park, always fun. We have done it a few times in the past. More fun now when the grands are here.

first ride loading up, they did 3  full loads

      Then at 8:00  pm a free live band at the clubhouse mostly Rock'n Roll from the 70's era. Not really our kinda music and as usual way too loud. But we did get up for one dance.

"No Show Joe Band" but they were here

             We stayed for the first set and were home shortly after 9 o'clock. Kinda past our bedtime anyway. Nice to go to these functions right here in the park. We do like free but not over the top loud.

         Great sleep and apparently it rained overnight, we heard nothing, guess we are used to this lifestyle. I am deaf but even did not wake Suzie.

         Foggy warm damp morning but still shorts and t shirt weather. As we sat outside early noticed this woodpecker pecking away at a tree stump beside our site. Digging a huge hole in the rotten wood and am sure having feast of tasty bugs. Even me getting closer did not scare him away.

we watched him for the longest time.

can you see him head buried?

        Ok now 9 am, we ready to wander into Grand Bend to the Pinery Antique Flea Market . Only 20 minutes away and one of our favorite places to visit when we are in the area. Only open Sundays for May until October. This is their 48th season and I have been coming here for about 40 of those years.

a lot of fog, the wind turbines are almost invisible

      Now we wandered the market pretty busy and lots of vendors on the log weekend with perfect weather too.

fresh baked goodies

not too crowded yet, but by the time we leave before noon,
the lineups are starting

love these hot tubs

    Wood crafts here too lots to see and always changing.

the pop machine and gas pumps are made of wood too

Suzie's weakness, fresh Kettle corn

my weakness xtra hot pepperettes,
the suicide are excellent too.

       That was our fun morning outing then back home for a bite for lunch and enjoy this awesome weather, temps got into the mid 80's (30c) now thats our kinda weather! Puttered around, got some reading done and I finally got to the Fitness Centre for a nice 1 hour work out.

       Just enjoying this outside weather in the shade. After putting together a ground lean turkey meatloaf and  refrigerate for a couple hours. To firm it up for our Weber Q. Read some more loving it!

        About 4 our friends Emile and Monique stopped by for a nice "Happy Hour". A great time to reconnect again. They are here for another few days then we go our own ways, never know when we will meet up again.

perfect weather

        Then time to fire up our Weber Q 100, low and slow after preheating, cook for about 25 minutes , carefully turn over for about 15 more, apply some BBQ sauce, grill a garlic bun and some very fresh local asparagus. Similar recipe here on my Recipe blog, but turkey instead of beef and no cheese.
