Another couple of weeks have flown by. In that time we celebrated Canadian Thanksgiving late by having turkey dinner a week late, traveled to Burlington twice, once to celebrate my brother's 63rd birthday (it's funny how the age difference between us gets bigger every year, I like 49 a lot) and the second to visit my mother and take her to an appointment. Halloween has also come and gone --- 25 children came to the house this year, a record for us.

The count down is now 20. Reservations have been made for two of our stops on the way south ... decided they would be a good idea as the dates co-inside with American Thanksgiving. The trailer was moved from the side yard to driveway, the furnace, stove and refrigerator were checked to make sure they are functioning correctly. Organizing and packing can begin.
