Wheatley

Woke up and got a slow start traveling today. So enjoyed just relaxing. Brian and I have decided Fall is a great month for camping because everyone has gone back to school and summer is basically over so no crowds. The leaves are going to be turning soon, you can feel it coming. Nature is getting ready. The squirrels are busy gathering acorns and everything looks like it is winding down.

We drove through Simcoe, Delhi, Tillsonburg, Aylmer, St. Thomas, Blenheim and Wheatley before settling down for the night. We've discussed it and think that Tillsonburg is really nice but we're still checking the areas we feel we want to live in.

We found the Lakeside Village Motel and Campground just outside of Wheatley. The campground is right on the bluffs overlooking Lake Erie. We pretty much had the campground all to ourselves as the seasonal campers are gone right now...maybe they'll be out on the weekend but for now it is very quiet except for the heavy winds. The multiple wind turbines around the countryside between Blenheim and Wheatley suggest it might be too windy for us to live here. Tonight we got a little taste of it as our motorhome swayed us to sleep.

Tomorrow we are heading down to see Leamington and then back up to Chatham-Kent.
