Bought a house in Ontario

Decided to stayover at Turkey Point for an additional day. We've been traveling so much that we haven't stayed more than one night at any campground so we thought it would be nice to just relax a bit and stay another night. Also that would give us a chance to see our good friends from Brantford again. Rob and Michelle said they would drive out to Turkey Point and camp with us for the night.




The biggest news!!! We took a drive today with a realtor in the Simcoe area. She showed us 5 houses in the Norfolk county. 

Guess what -- we found one that we really liked and put an offer on it.  It is out in the country only a few minutes from Lake Erie.



It is outside of Port Rowan, Ontario near Long Point Provincial Park and about 20 minutes from Turkey Point. This house has everything we wanted except a swimming pool. It met 9 out of 10 things on our Top 10 list of things we are looking for.
