A Long Day and Bad Roads…

Today we left Quebec about 9:30am for a 266 mile drive to Grenville RV Park in Johnstown, ON.

We needed to make this long trip to be sure we have time to see Niagara Falls and other places before our rally in Ohio on Sept. 27th.

Even though long,  we expected the trip to be relatively easy because it was 4 lane all the way.

But that was not to be.

Passing thru the Montreal area we encountered the worst 4 lane road conditions we’ve ever seen.

The roads were either under construction, or should have been.  And on top of that, they weren’t very well marked, either.

The one nice thing about the trip were the beautiful colors.  Fall is here, at least in Canada.  It’s amazing how much the leaves have changed just in the three weeks we were in Canada.

We arrived at Grenville RV Park in Johnstown, ON about 3:15pm and were given a very nice pull-thru site right on the St. Lawrence river.

After getting set up and settling in, we went out for dinner at a place recommended by the RV park called 730 Truck Stop  Restaurant.

And like the truck stop restaurant in Houltan, ME that we really liked, this one was excellent also.

Getting back to the rig, we let Mister stretch his legs for a while before we went in for the night.

More tomorrow…
