After waking several times in the night to start the car for warmth, we awoke for good at 8am, and drove off to check out several potential homes along the Lake Erie shoreline. Despite being only a scouting mission, we even managed to get a tour of one beautiful home along Talbot Trail, with a full view of Lake Erie......a little higher price than we were looking for....but still....
After lunching in our new favourite diner in Merlin, we made the trip to John and Julie's place in Ilderton, for some much-appreciated home cooking. After a nice visit, we headed on in early evening, growing eager now to be home. Stopping briefly in Fergus, we traversed the final few hours to Barrie, encountering nasty rain and snow from Fergus to Barrie, making the last two hours of our long trip easily the worst.
Pulling in the driveway to the most snow we had seen in two weeks, we entered the house and collapsed wearily on the couch. The cats were happy to see us again (we think), and we regaled Kevin with stories of our travels over a few tasty beers.....after all ,unpacking the car could wait!
21 States + 10,540km = 1 Great Trip!!
