Last winter while they were in Mexico with us, Don and Doreen decided to drive to Nova Scotia at the end of August, bringing Ruth R. too. But in June, the three of them changed their minds. The drive was too far so they canceled. But after driving to friends north of Peterborough Don and Doreen decided that the drive was feasible as long as they spent two nights on the road. They have been here now for a week and we have had a grand time. But tomorrow they must drive home.
They did so well on their drive here that Don suggested we might all four of us drive to St.Paul, the start of our cruise in 2018. They had already agreed to take a bit of a vacation with us in Ontario, after Katey's wedding and before Ken and I flew to St.Paul. While we were all sitting around chatting in the living room, they both wondered that instead of vacationing in Ontario we could drive to Minnesota. We have had great sport deciding on the routes and distances. Ken has mapped out a tentative journey, which will include a couple of days in Parry Sound, as well as a visit in Sault St. Marie where Christian and Chantel live with their children.
After we spend a couple of days in St.Paul, Don and Doreen plan to continue west to see their 2 grandsons living in Edmonton. Then they will drive straight home to Ontario. Our plan is to rent a big vehicle. Of course, lots of details must be worked out but the goal has been set. We are all excited for September, 2018. And this all came about because they came to visit.
