We spent two nights in Kingston, basically to kick back and do nothing. We've been so busy lately that I think both Lise and I needed to lose some of that stress and tension. We met our in-laws, Richard and Barb Salter, who were staying at the RV Park prior to heading back to Ottawa tomorrow or Tuesday.
On Saturday we drove through Toronto without too much trouble. It was quite windy but it didn't bother us too much. We actually arrived at the Flying J at London pretty early in the day and decided to continue on to an RV park in Wyoming, Ontario, just short of the US Border.
Today we had a fairly uneventful stop at the border. The customs agent came into the rig to look around and check out our cupboards and fridge. Otherwise, pretty straightforward and we were through the border in about 5 minutes.
We had planned to stop at Angola in Indiana, but again we were there too early. We had miscalculated the distance; so we kept on going and were lucky enough to find a campground just north of Indianapolis. We are at GloWood Campground at South Pendleton, Indiana. It is not always easy to find a campground if the one you have planned on is not available for some reason. The signage is pretty skimpy and even if you see a sign there is the possibility that they don't cater to big rigs. I would hate to drive into one of those places and have to try to turn around after. We always plan our stops ahead of time, using the internet, Microsoft Streets and Trails mapping, and Woodall's - which provides information on camping in North America (I rely on that a lot!). Anyway this place is just fine, the park management are friendly and we have our internet connection so we can get updated on things.
We might have to slow down a bit. We are going to get to our home park too early at this rate. We'll see how it goes over the next few days. We travelled 390 miles today.
