Canada_USA - 2019
After many years of saying "We should visit the east coast of Canada in the fall to experience the autumn colours", we finally decided to make the trip. We spent many weeks planning our trip, and finally loaded up our RV and headed east.
Our first stop will be Winnipeg, where Brenda grew up. We'll spend a few days with her best friend since childhood - Mira and husband John. Eventually we will meet my brother Doug and wife Marlene as we continue east.
This will be the first trip we have ever taken where we don't have a specific deadline to return home - no return flights booked and no return to work required. Ah, the joys of retirement! We may be home by late September, or if we are not homesick by then we'll travel south along the US east cost and then west - depending on roads and weather.
