    My new splint overnight worked wonderful kept that finger straight, was comfortable and I got a great sleep. Got the coffees and stuff taken care and then a  nice walkabout around the campground just over a mile to start my day.
    We headed into Strathroy for a few groceries. And yes Suzie came with me another strange happening. She was looking for some new pants and our first stop was Giant Tiger. In 5 minutes she found what she wanted for a good price and bought 2 pairs! So no need to go to Walmart or the Salvation army.
    Next stop was the Real Camadian Super Store. Fill the car there at their pump $1.05 a litre plus I got PC points as well. There was a few items in the store on sale that gave us another 10,000 pc points so another $10.00 of free groceries. Back home before 11 am for a light lunch.
    I had seen on Facebook about a Biker Fest at Ipperwash Beach on the shores of Lake Huron, so took drive there to check it out and this website as well. Clic HERE  Over 4,000 bikers intend to be there. Their has been some issues at the Port Dover Friday the 13th Bike Fest and these people have been looking for an alternative location. Hope it works out for them.
     So I took a short drive there to check it out got there about noon and already quite few hundred Motorcycles there, lining the streets A huge tent set up new by the beach club with a live band just getting going, lots of friendly people and amazing motorcycles. This is their first Friday the 13th and looks like it will be a huge success.

Welcome to Ippwerwash Bike Fest

the bikes are rolling in

     I walked around for about an hour to check out the nice rides. The rain had stopped and a wonderful warm sunny day.

      I walked around about 1.5 miles taking in the sites. so nice that it was close to us where we are camped and hopefully more of these events will happen here.

      The big tent all set up as well as the band soon getting ready to begin playing. Lots of food and beverages being served, lineups for that , looks like they are well prepared for the crowds later on.

not too busy in the tent yet but lots more coming

     I walked down to the beach past the bikes to check out Lake Huron Beach so calm today. We do love the sandy beaches here in Ontarios west coast.

Michigan on the other side of the Lake 

just a few people checking it out right now

      I know I am early and things will really be hopping for the rest of the day. The band plays until 11 pm.

       Nice that I was able to beat the crowds and park around the corner and enjoy seeing all these bikes.
       That was my early fun for the day and have really enjoyed it. Now back home to relax in the shade enjoying our e-readers with my sweetie. A bit later Linda dropped to give Suzie a doiggie fix with her puppies..

2 dogs she has and love Ssuzie

     Then just after 3 pm Tucker and Choco dragged Gerry over here for Happy hour. More doggie fixes for Suzie.

Trucker on her lap and Choco  hanging out

as usual they get their treats

     Ken and Kim joined for happy hour as well just because they can and we are here.

        Looks like a storm coming in. I had preheated our Weber Q to grill a nice bone in  turkey breast for supper tonight. So easy on the grill about an hour till 165 F internal temp. So moist and crispy on the outside. Flipping it only once to brown the skin on top.

this was so very tasty

for me I like my hot sauces with poultry
as you can see above

added to our salad sure did the trick
and of course lots of leftover for lunches.

     We had a wonderful great late summer  day. Shopping, the bikers and a fun Happy hour winding up with a tasty supper.  Looks like we will  be getting a storm a bit later so after 7 pm we will be heading inside for the rest of the night soon,  Even though it is still a wonderful 75F outside . Some thunder and lighting that we can enjoying outside under our awning . the perfect way to enjoy camping, watching the storm and a wonderful warm evening.
      Hey thanks for taking the time to stop on by and hope y'all  had a great day  as well.

My countdown when we head south October 17thCountdown
