           A bit cooler this morning frost on the car but was getting to be a sunny day. And we are moving on down the road. Secured the coach and headed out about 9 am stopped in Ayr to top up or propane tank, then east and north to Aurora, to visit Daughter number one, SOL and the 3 grands for a few days.

159 kms(98 Miles) today
another wonderful sunrise here before we left
still frost on the car roof in the morning
      Passed through the small hamlet of "Snow Ball" Ontario population 190. Just before  getting to Aurora.
Snow Ball General store
       Arrived at the Walmart here about 11:30, made a bite to eat then over to visit with the family.
nice rv friendly Walmart
        Arrived here and Grandaughter # 1 is either reading, relaxing or studying, looks pretty comfy to me.
      Then daughter playing in the kitchen while we chat, making some fresh roasted garlic hummus.
the Kids having a ball on the trampoline
           After an afternoon of chatting and the kids playing outside, fired up their Weber to grill some marinated boneless, skinless chicken thighs for the 7 of us. Added to a very tasty salad, great company and conversation.
 
love chicken
grilled some Naan Bread as well
      The meal was great nice to see them all again. And grandaughter #1 was doing what little girls love to do practicing taking on the phone! Notice the old rotary phone ?

         Then they all went outside to crack open their geodes that we brought back for them from Arizona, interesting mysterious formations that they enjoyed.
      That was an great afternoon hanging out just catching up over a wonderful tasty dinner. Then back to Camp Walmart and call it a night.
      We gonna hang out in the area for a few days yet.
      Thanks for stopping by and hope y'all had a wonderful day as well.

  1. Good thing your granddaughter is getting familiar with the rotary phone. Most kids today don't even know what to do with it. You tell them it's a phone and their little fingers start hitting the numbers. And there is a village by the name of SNOW BALL??? I would hate to live there. Would remind me of winter all year long.

    1. She has fun playing with the phone, nice that enjoy some of the past.
      Yrep there is actually a place called Snow Ball would seem like a chilly place to live.

  2. Some where along the line of your posts from AZ, I missed the geodes. What the heck are they? Where did you buy them? I am always looking for different gifts. Looks like a wonderful time with the family.

    1. I bought the Geodes at Gem World In Quartzsite this past winter. Very inexpensive you can check them out on google here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geode.
      Great for the kids, something different.

  3. So happens that on Saturday we were talking about travels and washroom breaks. One of the things (well, many things) that I enjoyed about having a motorhome was being able to take my washroom right along with me. Seems I'm my own worst enemy. I really like my coffee, but it's quite the diuretic.

    1. Yep we love our coffee as well, and have been spoiled living in our motorhome, really don't much like travelling without it.

  4. It seems when you visit others, you always end up cooking the meal instead of them. So, you can visit us anytime ! :)
