Early to Mid November

To fill the time between the end of the season at Maitland Shores in Dunnville and heading south I returned to Silver Dove Estates. It was nice to see all the folks I had spent last summer with and partake in some of their activities, like coffee clutch,carpet bowling, euchre and cribbage. Unfortunately the fall had been quite wet there and the ground was very muddy. It was a good think that my truck has the option of 4 wheel drive as without it I don't think I would have been able to get my trailer onto the site. 

Newly purchased boots to survive in the wet, mud and snow.
Not the most fashionable, but very functional.

The weather most of the fall was too nasty for golf as it was very rainy and it snowed! More than once. I went through quite a bit of propane trying to keep me warm and the pipes and tanks from freezing. I'm not a big fan of cold weather camping.




During my stay there I went to visit my friend Lorraine who was the moved from Toronto to Grand Bend when she retired. I had visited with her a couple of times last year. We went for lunch at the native owned and operated Rob's Fish and Chips in Kettlepoint,Ontario:

It is just a shack, really.

I had fish and upgraded my fries to poutine. Yummy.
After lunch went for a drive and a walk to look at some unique rocks in the Kettlepoint area. 


This is a good example of the Concretions you can find there.
While in Appin I also went to London to attend the synagogue and see my friends there. On another trip into London I visited Shirley Cookson and Dawn Harvey and had my Lectronic Caddy serviced.
