Very cold day, more stuff picked up and ready to move in this Thursday

Where are we today ?
 clic a pic to enlarge it
      Got a real good pain free sleep again last night, sure is making me feel better despite dull November days we are having. This on going dream about winter home seems to be stuck on a location. Ideally the southwest would be perfect at an elevation good for year round living  and have the all benefits of our Canadian health care system.
      Well today we headed down to southern Ontario, near Turkey Point (close to lake Erie) to pick up a few things that have been stored our maple kitchen table and chairs, Suzie's Cedar chest and what ever else. With the use of BIL Ross's cube van that will be used on Thursday moving onto the apartment. Thanks so much Ross for the use of this van.
their normal black rood is white today
       We were ready to head down to Chris and Bills when Suzie's Brother Dennis and SIL Sandy  arrived just after 10 am, to drive the truck. We arrived there about 11:30 loaded the table, chairs cedar chest and a few boxes in the Cube Van secured it all with straps and headed back to Tavi. The only place we found to stop for a quick bite on this whole back country whole route was in Delhi KFC so that is what we did and enjoyed a very tasty lunch.
        Thank you Chris and Bill for the wonderful place store a few things, and the nice but short visit. Hopefully a longer one next year.
All packed up after a short visit, made our way back home.
making our way back to Tavi all very nice back country roads
overcast  and a cool day 40 f was the highest it got
just enough for me 2 pieces of chicken and a few fries
a nice relaxing drive home.
the Ginseng crops uncovered for the winter
this was our route down and back
165 KMS (102 miles)
   We relaxed for a while enjoyed a quiet rest of Sunday, then a bite to eat, Suzie, wanted a grilled Ham and Cheese, so I had a 1/2 of one. Was easy and tasty.
    There ya go a nice  productive day rounding up a few more things for our apartment. That is just about it other than packing few last minute items to load on to the truck this Wednesday. Thanks y'all for dropping in for a peek and hope you had a nice cooler day, even not much sunshine hopefully tomorrow.

  8. Like you, Kelly and I have often thought about the same thing. "Ideally the southwest would be perfect at an elevation good for year round living and have the all benefits of our Canadian health care system". You and I just gotta get working on a plan. Keep plugging George.

  15. My sister was 10 years old and my brother 16 when I was born. They both lover to take care of me and show me off to their friends. I had it made! Pain meds block you from feeling the pain but the root cause of the pain is still there and still wearing you down. Lots of sleep (whenever you can get it) is what you need as well as a good diet. We are all watching out for you George. You will be your old self soon!
