Another great sleep and we are excited to get on the road again. Got a short walkabout first thing this morning then puttered round and began getting ready. to get going again.
Our plan today was to head north, and all the traffic, by pass Grand bend and follow NWY 21 along Ontario's west coast of Lake Huron.

Passed by Hayter's Turkey Farm where we get our Turkey Burgers |

We got parked and the lot next door had a couple of "
looking horses" as Clare called them , more like pets to just look at.

nice looking horses right beside us |
For supper tonight Suzie wanted me to make up a bunch of pork back ribs for them , not a problem. I got them on sale last week so ready to go. Wrapped in foil with sauerkraut on the Weber q outside. for a couple of hours, threw on some potatoes to bake sliced up some fresh fresh tomatoes and cucumber.

taters and ribs on our Weber Q |

while this was cooking we flapped our gums catching up |

ribs fall off the bone tender on to the grill mat to glaze wit a tasty sauce |
Ok now we had a feast oh so tasty.

Cathy made some Blueberry cheesecake to end this feast was excellent |

Inside we enjoyed a very tasty meal ending with Blueberry Cheesecake from Cathy

Another fun day reconnecting with Uncle Clare and Cathy out here in the country close to Owen Sound.
Thanks for stopping by, this had been a long day and probably many typos but too late and internet too slow for me to proof read, it is what it is.
Hope y'all had a great day as well.
