Great weather and socialize with good friends today.

Where are we today ?

New Hamburg Ontario

        Weather is getting better, sunshine, blue skies hardly any wind and a bit warmer. From -6c (21f) overnight to + 6c (42f) today.  Kinda really liking it, just need to be a tad warmer, (big tad), but sure better than what we have been having since we got here.

         Taking advantage of the weather did a few walkabouts the yard picking up more branches and limbs than had blown off the trees the last few days. Fresh air, sunshine and exercise all in one.

the creek is always so peaceful looking, here, cold thou

a few spring flowers giving us a bit of color too

         When I drove thru town this morning spotted John and Lea outside and stopped to chat for a bit. They were home all day and invited us over a for a visit and catchup. So after a bite for lunch headed back out their house. These are good friends that live in Plattsville with a very large lot. And invite us to come camp there. We lived in town for 25 years. 

        So stopped in and hung out in the garage where they have a TV hooked up and the three large dogs hang out too. Kind of and inside/outside patio in the garage/ sports bar. Lea has her baseball games on TV almost constantly. Winter time the doors are closed and it is heated by John's engineering marvel of a heater. Notice this car radiator, with a fan behind, and water pipes coming from the hot water heater in the house with a recirculating pump all hooked up to a wall thermostat. Toasty warm in there.

        While chatting with Lea she recalled an incident at her work the other day. This couple was in the Home Depot, where she works part time and were looking for a small Weber BBQ for their RV. Lea mention she had friends that use a Weber Q-100 and are full time RV'ers. Now this lady said out of the blue is his name George? Now apparently they have been reading our blog for quite a while, but have never met us. Saw our blog posting on the side bar of another Blog that they were reading. I think Lea said they were from the Goderich Ontario area. Now how cool is that?

excellent heater

        Suzie was in her glory here. She really misses Omer at the farm and Lea had three large dogs here today. Well she got down on the floor and proceeded to brush all three of them, one at a time, they just love it! Suzie too.

         We even got to sit on the back deck for a while in the sun too was very nice!

but look at the dog hair all over her,
small price to pay for all this fun.

        Time was flying by and next thing we know got invited to stay for supper. And we had no plans at all tonight. So magically, this hug roast beef and potato pocket made its way to their BBQ.

cooking away on the BBQ

perfect

         Then a caesar salad appeared, we put everything together and had a real amazing roast beef dinner hosted by wonderful friends. We will be back to camp out in their yard and maybe even ride John Deere cutting their grass for a while this summer.

so tasty!

         Now before we know its getting late so back on the country roads, to our coach and even caught a bit of a sunset in the process. Gonna be an awesome day again tomorrow, I can tell!

        Once again wanna thank y'all for dropping in for a visit and checking us out.
