Elm River, Nova Scotia - July 28, 2015

July 28, 2015

Monte & Max decided it was a great night to be up umpteen times to beg for food.  After about the third time, Bev was about to boot them outside.  She decided to get up and start preparations.

Getting ready to head out went quickly.  We left the park at 8:30 a.m.  Bev wanted to get a picture on the huge Adirondack chair for the Christmas card before we left, but unfortunately that didn’t happen.  She did take a rag out and wiped off a spot, so they got a picture of Bev only.  Nobody was around to con into taking a picture and a selfie was not an option.

Down the road – 202 miles to Elm River, Nova Scotia.  We had stayed at this park one night before and it was nice.  We got a little Direct TV and Bev could go to a spot in the park to get Wifi. 

When we got to the park, we went to get into the Jeep and the fobs wouldn’t work.  We found that if you open them up there is an emergency key inside – however, that starts the car alarm blaring.  Nice way to draw attention to ourselves.  We never did figure out how to replace the fob battery.  We ARE getting old and the technology is driving us nuts.  Finally, Stan got the alarm blaring to stop – only after the neighbor came out to ask if we were stealing the car.  It was one of our group, so they were only joking of course.

The boys (Monte & Max) had been locked up long enough, so Bev decided they needed a little walk.  BIG MISTAKE.  After we were out there for a few minutes, another coach came down the road and scared Monte.  He slipped out of his harness and went running.  We had at least six of the caravan trying to catch him.  Can you imagine all of the senior citizens on their hands and knees trying to catch a cat.  Finally, we succeeded and we caught him.  No more outdoors for him for awhile.

Tonight, is another drivers meeting.  We all gathered in the meeting room at the RV park.  We were given the schedule for the next couple of days.
