Last night in Bracebridge, ON

Tomorrow we get to go home.  It was very sunny and nice until yesterday, then the rain came.  The huge piles of snow are disappearing and you can finally see the picnic tables and flower beds of the occasional dead stalk.  Spring is coming! 

The place is very nice and we would like to come back in the summer or fall for a vacation.

Bracebridge, ON

Well, we're in Canada, eh?  The weather has been so nice and sunny after the long winter.  Still lot's of snow on the ground but it was 15 (Canadian) today!

The town is very picturesque with nice well kept old buildings containing interesting looking shops and restaurants.  Rita went to Bo, a Thai restaurant that was very good.

We'll post some pictures soon.

Green Bay, WI

We arrived here by rental car Thursday afternoon. We had lunch at Schlotsky's and then Rita had to work a couple of hours and then she did laundry - an exciting day!  The hotel is very nice with lots of cable channels for us to watch and a window seat to watch the people coming and going.  Rita got to spend part of her lunch hour yesterday across the street at the Cook's Corner.  The signs say the largest kitchen store in the nation.  We're sure the car would be a lot fuller if we were driving home instead of flying. 

It snowed most of yesterday but the roads were fine.

We're supposed to go home on Thursday.  Don't know if we'll get time to actually see Green Bay but we'll post pics is we can.
