Tuesday - May 1 - We had a good visit with Doug & Fran last night, it has been about a year since we have seen them so lots of catching up to do.

We woke up to a bit of rain this morning, but fortunately not a lot and then it cleared off by the time we were ready to leave. We stopped and fueled up - diesel was $2.759 so not too bad a price then stopped at the duty free as there were a couple of Estee Lauder things I wanted to pick up. We crossed the bridge and we were the only car there, so drove right up and after a few questions we were told we had been randomly picked for an inspection - great! There were a few more questions then we had to pull over and one customs gal went through the inside of the truck with a fine tooth comb and a fellow checked the trailer. John was able to go in with him and John said he checked the bedroom, under the bed and one cupboard in the hallway (John said he got dive bombed by a box of Kleenex when he opened the cupboard door!) and that was it, They were all very nice and friendly and we were out of there within about 10 minutes.

We got to London about 11:30 hoping to see Andy but he was busy when we got there but after a while Steve said they could look at the furnace and step if we could wait another hour. To make a long story short we got our furnace and step fixed and decided that by then it was almost 5 so we might as well stay here for the night. We finally got to talk to Andy at about 7:00 p.m., after they had closed and everyone had gone he came out to the trailer and we had a good chat. We had a lot of questions about the solar system, the back-up camera, etc which we wanted to ask him so it was worth the wait as he gave us some good hints and answered a lot of our questions.

When they said they could do the furnace and step John got us unhitched then we went to Tim’s for lunch, it has been a long time since we were there and it was good. By the time we got through with Andy it was 8 so we decided to go to Swiss Chalet for dinner, so now I am happy - I have had my Timmy’s and Swiss Chalet. Sure do wish they had them in the southern states!

After our chat with Andy there are a couple of things they are going to check out in the morning so we hope to be out of here by noon at the latest and get up to Kincardine and get set up.
