OH, AND BY THE WAY……IT’S THANKSGIVING WEEKEND HERE IN CANADA:))

GREAT GOLFING WEATHER AT THE MAITLAND VALLEY GOLF COURSE IN GODERICH
Our weather has just been unbelievably nice this week and it is what perfect Autumn daydreams are made of.  The magic is in the air once again and how fortunate for we folks who live in these northern latitudes to experience this beautiful change of Seasons every year.  If I lived in the South I would schedule my vacations for the first weeks of October just to be a part of Autumns majestic days here in the great Province of Ontario.

Had a question about our personal travel insurance.  Our Canadian Health Insurance does not cover Canadians when traveling out of country so it is necessary for Canadian travelers to purchase additional and extended medical coverage for the length of time we travel.  Due to age and medical problems I would venture to say that it is high insurance costs that eventually end the travels of many aging RV'ers.

Here's something that really bugs me....'Giggle Girls'.  I am in the habit of turning on CNN news for a bit early each morning to see what ongoing messes the world has got itself into overnight.  CNN has decided to go with a couple women anchors for the newscasts and I'm sure they have been infused with the 'Happy Gang' approach to anchoring the morning news.  Nothing personally against the ladies but that giggling, flouncing, and animated over the top laughing banter is annoying.  Yes, I know, just change the channel.  I like a news format, either radio or television, with a single announcer delivering a straight forward, factual and giggleless newscast.  NBC's Brian Williams comes to mind as the right way of doing things.
 
Tonight the Bayfield Bunch welcomes CAROLYN AND GERALD aboard our Blog Followers list. Read your two recent posts folks and am hoping everything turns out well for you. All the best.

We normally receive about two dozen Spam emails a day in our Hotmail account. There was a time when all these Spams were in English. It is now a rarity to see an English speaking spam email come in and I would almost welcome one I could understand. Probably 98% of the Spams are in those oriental characters so am assuming they are all coming from China.
 
Managed to get my travel Mojo working again today as I busied myself cleaning Motor Home windows.  Took a few pics of our caulking and undercoating jobs as well.  And, it is now official….we will not be leaving October 15th for the 4 Corners area of Colorado as previously planned.  Best guess for getting out of here is now sometime late October or early November and we will probably just head straight for southern Arizona and California.  Maybe next year for the Four Corners…………………..

  
WE DEFINITELY NEED OUR VEHICLES UNDERCOATED HERE IN ‘ROAD SALT’ COUNTRY

  
THE CAULKING LOOKS LIKE YUMMY VANILLA ICING
'Never leave home without it'.  I remember that credit card commercial years ago but for me it means something different.  Just as Roman soldiers strapped on their swords in the morning and Cowboys strapped on their guns, I too strap on something each morning, but it isn't a gun or sword.  It's my camera.  One of the main reasons for buying my compact Canon Powershot SX210IS digital camera this past winter was to give me easy access to a camera throughout the day.  It conveniently sits in a small holster type pouch on my belt just about where the Cowboys of yesteryear carried their shooting irons.  Convenient and out of the way.  However, I don't think there was ever a Cowboy out there who strapped on his gun and holster......upside down!!!!
 

Well, I did just that a few days ago and walked around all morning wearing my camera holster upside down with camera inside just waiting to tumble out onto the ground.  Luckily, I am in the habit of zipping up both sides of my belt's camera pouch and that is what saved the camera from a nasty fall.  Another lucky break for AL.   Say, has anyone out there ever put their underwear on backwards:))

DEER PARK LODGE BAYFIELD……………. WHERE KELLY WORKS
GROANER'S CORNER:(( Mike was driving down a lonely country road one cold winter day in Montana when it began to sleet pretty heavily. His windows were getting icy and the wiper blades on his yellow Jeep Wrangler were badly worn and quickly fell apart under the strain.
Unable to drive any further because of the ice building up on his front window he suddenly had a great idea. He stopped and began to overturn large rocks until he located two very lethargic hibernating rattle snakes. He grabbed them up, straightened them out flat and installed them on his blades and they worked just fine.

I TOOK PHEEBS OUT FOR LUNCH

 
OUR FRONT YARD’S BUSY FROG POND IS VERY QUIET THESE DAYS AS IT LIES STILL UNDER A TOPPING OF DUCK WEED AND PINE NEEDLES

Well, I am having one of my evening blank spots tonight.  Always something to write about of course but I do not always have the creative initiative in putting the words together.  As fast as my mind comes up with a subject idea my mind also quickly categorizes the topic as too boring, too controversial, too repetitive, too serious or too silly.  Sometimes I am just too analytical and find myself with a heavy case of analysis paralyses at the end of the day.  
Raked up up a bunch of pine needles and trimmed back some flower beds with the weed whacker.  Fired up the chain saw for a couple minutes to cut down a thick stand of Bamboo grass in the back yard.  Burned some garbage in the burning barrel and of course grabbed a few winks in my chair.  Lots of things to do for our upcoming trip but my travel excitement has tanked. 
Had a load of garden trimmings in the utility trailer so Pheebs and I headed for our Park's environmental dump area.  Would have taken the Motor but she was sound asleep in a warm patch of sunlight on the couch.  Pheebs helped me unload the trailer so I took her to Subway for lunch.  We split a 6" Cold Cut Combo and Pheebs got to ride in the front seat of the Jeep for a change. Happy, happy, little Dog:))
Before I forget……a solid amber engine light on your dash does not denote a serious problem and you are free to drive on.  However, a ‘flashing’ amber engine light is serious business and you had better pull over and shut it down.  
Again, IVAN has some great mountain scenery and flower photos from out around Mount Rainier way.  I always enjoy Ivan's posts because he gets himself off the main roads and usual tourist hang outs and heads himself onto the back country roads few of us would dare to go.  Instead of the standard along the highway viewpoints we so often see, Ivan gets in around behind the viewpoints in many cases and his photos give a refreshingly new  look to some old familiar sights.

GROANER'S CORNER:((  A 54 year old woman had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital.
While on the operating table she had a near death experience..  Seeing God she asked "Is my time up?"
God said, "No, you have another 43 years, 2 months and 8 days to live."  Upon recovery, the woman decided to stay in the hospital and have a face-lift, liposuction, breast implants and a tummy tuck.
She even had someone come in and change her hair color and brighten her teeth! Since she had so much more time to live, she figured she might as well make the most of it.  After her last operation, she was released from the hospital. While crossing the street on her way home, she was run over and killed by an ambulance.  Arriving in front of God, she demanded, "I thought you said I had another 43 years? Why didn't you pull me from out of the path of that ambulance?

God replied: " I didn't recognize you."

GREAT RE-CAULKING JOB ON THE MOTOR HOME

A COUPLE OF TIRED PALS

Our morning was basically a repeat performance of the previous morning.  Again, we started the day with sunshine as we headed for Mitchell to take Uncle Harry back to the Dentist for a tooth filling.  Harry was wide awake and raring to go and everything went off like clockwork again.  Nice for Harry to get out for a cruise in his wheelchair even if it was only a block to the Dentist.  We sure lucked out weather wise for this venture.

  

LEAVING THE CARE FACILITY – CROSSING A QUIET STREET – HEADING UP THE SIDEWALK – ARRIVING AT THE DENTIST

The Motor Home was ready to be picked up this afternoon so Kelly and I headed for STORMRUNNER'S RV SALES AND SERVICE.  They sure did a great caulking job on the rig after first stripping off all the old stuff which we should have actually had done a couple years ago.  Both end caps were re-sealed as well as the side mouldings and other areas on the roof and coach that needed it.  I’ve had a loose driver’s side mirror for quite awhile and they tightened that up as well plus secured the awning’s lag bolts which unbeknownst to us were in the process of working themselves loose.  All and all we sure appreciated the extra effort and attention paid to detail.   A job well done.  Dianne and Harry generally head to Florida in the winter but this year they are heading for the great American Southwest for a welcome change.  Yahouie Louie…..   Chances are good that we may very well see them somewhere in our travels.

With the roof caulking done now, that wraps up all the maintenance on the rig and the Jeep before our trip.  Each year we try to do a bit of upkeep on the vehicles.  Last year was new tires all way round for both the Jeep and Motorhome.  Rig’s generator was also serviced.  This year was undercoating, caulking and oil change tune-ups.  This RV life sure isn’t cheap I’ll tell ya.  Just re-newed our COACH-NET roadside assistance coverage for $106 and it looks like personal travel insurance this year is going to cost us about $1,300 for half a year. 

After losing Max and Checkers back in April the thought of 'no more pets' briefly entered my mind.  The thoughts of having to go through all that sorrow and anguish of loosing a beloved pet again seemed overwhelming.  Fortunately, that thought did not stay with me.  The many years of love and happiness a best Pal can bring far outweighs the eventual sadness in the end.  Years of playful memories, endless hours of toy time, quiet talks and morning walks.   Furry snuggles and scruffles that last for years and years with big brown eyes and floppy little ears.  Ahhh, tis a dog owners life indeed.

Having a best doggy Pal or two or three gives me a purpose.  It gets me out of the house for walks, it gets me down on the living room floor for playtime and it gives me a sense of well being to have a furry little or big dog curled up on my lap sound asleep.  Also gives me a sense of caring and how nice it is to wake up in the morning with a happy doggy face full of slurpy’s looking at me raring to get another day of boundless energy started.  Sometimes it’s the other end of the doggy with a big black powerful tail smacking me in the face.  I don’t mind it….I love it.    I don't really miss being around people much anymore but I sure do miss not being around my furry Pals:)) 

<<< LIKED THIS CARVED WOODEN TREE TRUNK SCULPTURE OUTSIDE THE DENTIST OFFICE

And, speaking of furry Pals, Pheebe is doing very well at being home without us for longer periods of time.  She hasn't ruined anything but does have a habit of bringing things out of Kelly's room and placing them all on the living room floor.  A big Teddy Bear on Kelly's bed is the usual favourite along with some socks and shoes.  Nothing chewed up, ripped or destroyed.   I wonder what the little Motormouse thinks when she sees her big Pal Pheebs trotting by with Mom's socks in her mouth.   

It was nearly one year ago that fellow RV’ers and Bloggers Bruce and Margie died in a tragic accident in Pismo Beach, California.  Today, the young man who ran them down was SENTENCED.  Thanks for that link EMjay. 

Noticed some winter storms are already moving into the Sierra and Rocky Mountains of the west and for sure those early storms are going to have a bearing on our travel plans by the time we get out there.  If we have to scrap our Four Corner's plan we may end up just taking our usual route down through Indianapolis, Little Rock, Texarkana, Gainesville, Roswell, Alamogordo and Las Cruces.  It's all going to depend on last minute departure times and weather in the mountains.

We did hear from Jeannie and Ray near McNeil Arizona a couple days ago and it looks like we will be returning to the Ranch again this year for awhile.  They are in the process of putting their winter travel plans together so we don't have any dates nailed down yet.  Always nice to touch base with old familiar faces and places:))

GROANER'S CORNER:((  Fred got home from his Sunday round of golf later than normal and very tired. "Bad day at the course?" his wife asked. "Everything was going fine," he said. "Then Harry had a heart attack and died on the 10th tee."
"Oh, that's awful!"
"You're not kidding. For the whole back nine it was hit the ball, drag Harry, hit the ball, drag Harry."

TODAY WE MET FELLOW RV’ERS RICHARD AND KATHY ROUSSEAU

A beautiful Autumn day.  We slipped down to Mitchell, loaded up Uncle Harry in his wheel chair and headed on out the door and down the street to the Dentist.  It’s a short half block walk along some sidewalks, across a highway and through a parking lot to reach the dentist and all went  well.  Harry enjoyed the ride.  Tomorrow morning we do it all over again because the Dentist, while cleaning Harry’s teeth found a cavity (don’t they always) and said for us make another appointment.  Hard enough on Harry today getting him out of his wheel chair into a dentist chair and now he has to do it all over again Tuesday morning for another short half hour appointment.

KELLY AND UNCLE HARRY CHECK OUT THE SPORTS PAGE AT THE DENTIST THIS MORNING
Took the Motor Home in to STORMRUNNER RV SALES AND SERVICE when we got back to have some caulking done on the roof.  No sign of Dianne or Harry but I’m sure they will call us when it’s done.  Home again and soon as I sat down for a minute in my big chair I was out like a light for a couple hours.  Seems my world is slowly tipping over for whatever reason with me sleeping more during the day and less at night.  Maybe I should just get myself a night job sweeping floors at Wal-Mart and be done with it!!

TWO LITTLE BUMS ON AN OLD COUCH
Late this afternoon we met a couple fellow RV’ers for supper at THE DOCKS in Bayfield .  Richard and Kathy Rousseau live in Tecumseh near Windsor Ontario and haul a big new 38’ Avalanche fifth wheel.  They have been reading my blog for awhile and had emailed a few months ago saying they would be passing through our area and wanted to get together, say Hello and buy us supper.  Thought that was pretty darn nice of them.
Fresh from the rain soaked Ohio Gypsy Journal rally south of the border they were sure glad to see todays sunshine.  They had also been to the RV Dreams rally.  Their rig was parked at THE OLD HOMESTEAD RV Park not far from us and they invited us back to their unit.  Beautiful 5th wheel complete with a very clever outside kitchen tucked away in the bedroom slide.  Richard is one of those ‘jack of all trades’ kind of guy and has already made many great renovations and improvements to their rig.  Some guys just got all the smarts!!
As is typical with all RV folks we have ever met, Richard and Kathy were very friendly and easy going folks.  Eager to share ideas, stories and travel adventures.  RV’ers have a special bond and whenever together there are no strangers.  I have a feeling once they return home and become settled, they just might turn their sights towards the blogging world:))

A RAIN DRENCHED DAY AND KELLY FIGURES OUT THE JEEP’S ERROR CODES

Kelly, using the internet was able to figure out and download the computer codes for our 2006 Jeep TJ Wrangler.  By doing that and following the instructions regarding number of ignition key turns she was able to determine the exact code number regarding our amber engine warning light that appeared on the dash a few days ago.  Could be something as simple as a gas cap problem or more involved as a slight emissions leak somewhere.  Some folks have solved this same problem with a new gas cap while others have had to crawl around in the engine compartment and under their vehicle trying to find the problem.  Our decision this morning was in deciding what to do.  Go with the already booked appointment at the garage or try replacing our gas cap.  In the end we decided to keep our garage appointment. 

We talked to garage owner Don and decided to simply cancel out the amber engine light for now and give it a few days to see if the light reappears.  If it does we'll take the Jeep back to the garage and they will 'smoke test' the emission system for leaks.  Regardless of the results, the problem is not serious and the most annoying thing would simply be having that amber light come back on.  And, as the internet forum suggested, it is not uncommon for the problem to just be the gas cap and is easily fixable if that were to be the case.

  

Turned out to be a real drencher of a day but at least it was milder.   And milder at this time of year is totally acceptable, wet or dry. We slipped down to Mitchell and had a visit with my Uncle Harry who continues to do well. We will be back again Tuesday morning to take him to a dentist appointment.

Also, because of today's heavy rains and in agreement with the Stormrunner RV folks, we have rescheduled the caulking of our Motor Home's roof until Tuesday or possibly Wednesday.  Weatherman is calling for sunny skies Tuesday and it is important to have the seams on the roof dry before undertaking the re-caulking.  Picked up our assembled Shaw Star Choice satellite dish and tripod today as well so things are beginning to fall nicely into place. 

RV SUE AND HER CANINE CREW are currently in Truth or Consequences and that of course reminded me of the time we spent there back in February of 2008.  Below are a few photos from our stay in T or C.  If you type Hillsboro, Chloride or Monticello into our sites 'Search Bar' you can also see our posts from the little semi ghost towns we visited in that area.  By the way, I did receive an email from the tourism board in Truth or Consequences after we left there informing me that I had incorrectly and frequently called the town Truth AND Consequences in my Blog while we had been there.  It was not a nasty email and I did appreciate the correction.

THIS IS THE PARK WE BOON DOCKED AT RIGHT ALONGSIDE THE RIO GRAND RIVER

Of course I hope everyone reading my Sunday night post realized my reference to wearing 37 layers of clothing was just a humorous exaggeration about the cold desert nights.  Because of the elevation in south-eastern Arizona it is cooler during the day and does get really cold at night.  Last winter our below freezing night time temps were at times colder than it was right here in Bayfield.  We still have no idea if we'll be in that part of Arizona this coming winter or not.  In fact, due to recent circumstances I have no idea when we are leaving now or whether we will even be able to make it to the Four Corners area of Colorado before the snows set in for the winter:((

OUR SOUTHWEST TRAVELS….VACATION OR LIFESTYLE??

TOOK THIS PICTURE OF MYSELF USING A NIKON D50 ON A TRIPOD AND SELF TIMER  WITH THE LIGHTING BEHIND ME  COMING FROM THE JEEP’S HEADLIGHTS….I AM TAKING A PHOTO OF THE FULL MOON COMING OVER THE SWISS HELM MOUNTAINS EAST OF ELFRIDA ARIZONA….CAMERA I AM USING IS A NIKON D40 WITH MY TELESCOPE LENS…..IT WAS A COLD NIGHT SO I HAD 37 LAYERS OF CLOTHES ON AND THAT IS WHY I LOOK SO BIG…………YA RIGHT!!

I have never looked at our 5 or 6 months in the southwest during the winter as a vacation.   In my mind, a vacation is 2 or 3 weeks away relaxing on a beach or at cottage somewhere.  We took a travel trailer up to Killbear Provincial Park near Parry Sound, Ontario about 12 years ago for a couple weeks and I considered that……. a vacation.

HIGHWAY 82 HEADING EAST TOWARDS HUACHUCA CITY ARIZONA

Our lifestyle in Bayfield is nowhere near our lifestyle on the road.  Everything is different (including my attitude:)) Different country, different people, different house and greatest of all, different scenery which has the great option of changing whenever we want to change it.  I once had a neighbour say to me, "well, it's nice to get away for awhile in the winter but then you have to come back to the real world." That statement stuck in my craw all summer that year as I pondered those words.   Our half year life on the road is every bit as real as our half year life here in Bayfield.

BOON DOCKED JUST A FEW MILES NORTH OFJOSHUA TREE NATIONAL PARK, CALIFORNIA

I noticed while traveling that I rarely think of our life in Ontario and when I do, the memory always seems so far away that it just doesn't really seem to matter a whole lot.  Our life in Bayfield is like an old faded memory from a far distant Planet.   Only time my thoughts turn to our Bayfield life is the last few weeks around the end of March before we return from the Southwest.  Can’t say those are good thoughts for me.

CASTLE VALLEY NEAR MOAB UTAH BACK IN 2008

I have blogged a few times before about us having the best of both worlds and of course in many ways it is true.  I think most people would probably agree with me on that one.  Pretty darn nice having a home base and yet be able to travel for half the year.  But, only half the year……….  Unfortunately for me, I was just  born with a restless spirit and too darn much travel juice in my blood!!

Our two reality worlds will soon be switching places once again as we head off for our second home in the land of deserts & mountains. Our other lifestyle. That other reality.  My personal favourite of……………..our two lifestyles:))

 

WE ARE GOING TO DEARLY MISS A COUPLE OF OUR BEST OLD TRAVELING PALS THIS WINTER

SIX SOLID DAYS OF RAIN FOR A FELLOW BLOGGER MAKES AN ALREADY DEPRESSING SITUATION………WORSE:((

PORT ALBERT FISHERMEN ON THE SHORES OF LAKE HURON
It has been three weeks since JUDY'S Motor Home brake problem began.  She not only had to get her rig towed but has spent these past weeks with her little dog Emma stuck in repair facility parking lots.  Her problem has finally been tracked down to her coaches computer Mother Board but now her insurance company is balking and dragging it's feet about a repair.  I think there may be an extended warranty problem here as well.  It has been raining for 6 straight days and Judy is just about at the end of her rope.  She is sure in need of some sunshine in her life right about now. 

Nice to touch base with my old friend Jim Thursday night.  We always get caught up on each other's lives and marvel how, in many areas, our lives continue to parallel each other, even after all these years.  Our coffee session lasted 4 hours and we carried on like a couple of manic Magpies in a quiet corner of Tim Horton's coffee shop in Clinton, Ontario.  After sitting on the those hard plastic seats for that length of time we both wobbled upon getting to our feet.  Quite a site seeing two aging hippy guys trying to shake hours of stiffness out of their legs.  Oh, how time is marching on:((

Reading  JANNA'S post this morning I came across a link entitled  TOLERANCE IN BLOGLAND.  This is a topic that has been on my mind for a long time but I have avoided blogging about it.  I have tried to lighten up my blog a bit and make it a little less controversial for the most part.  I was glad to read this lady's Tolerance post this morning.  I think she spoke for a lot of us who feel the same way.  I have little or no tolerance or regard for anyone who leaves rude, sarcastic, demeaning or condescending comments on anyone's blog.  Those kinds of comments are generally Ego driven.
 
TRIP TO WARMTH……… Here is a couple in the early stages of RVing and Blogging.  This handyman, amateur radio guy and obvious clever innovator is busy working on and improving a travel trailer.  Sounds like one of those guys who can fix or make anything out of 'parts laying around.'  Oh how I envy all you fellers who can do things like that.

JEAN AND SKIP are in Zion Canyon Utah but the heat is proving to be a formidable problem.  And to make matters worse, they are stuck in a crowded campground.  From Zion they will be heading to Bryce Canyon.  Zion and Bryce, two of my favourite scenic places in one of my favourite scenic States.  We may very well be in south-eastern Utah sometime in November.

This morning in doggy class it was nice to see the 3 furry class members (Katie, Boston and Pheebe) all off leash playing with each other as they raced and frolicked around the training room at,  ON GOLDEN PAWS.   We humans had to be fast on our feet to avoid the rolling thunder of paws, flailing tails and flying ears.  Took a few pics with my Canon point and shoot but next time I will take my faster Nikon D90 for better photos.


 
We didn't get much above 48 F today with brisk winds making it feel colder than it actually was.  A big blue sky with plenty of sunshine made up for that and made for a beautiful looking Autumn Day.  The bush lines along farmer's fields are beginning to take on some splashes of color and will soon be ablaze in their fiery finery.    Two trips on the trail for Pheebs and I today and it's just the best time of the year to be in the forest.  Hard to imagine that in just a few short months this warm picturesque land will look and feel like frozen Siberia!!

GROANER'S CORNER:((  Did you know that skipping school to go bungee jumping will get you suspended.
