And So It Begins

After three restful and enjoyable months at my daughter’s home, I am, as the Willie Nelson song goes, “On the Road Again”. The original plan was to stay with Lisa, Chris and Sydney till the end of March, but as Chris’s mom wanted to visit for a while and too enjoy her granddaughter and family, my room was no longer available. G-pa had to hit the road.
Rather than heading out for Michigan, where I will visit with a friend for a while and then up to Canada and west to Alaska, I decided to go to South Carolina and camp in a county park on Lake Wiley in Rock Hill for several weeks and wait out the cold weather up north. It’s been cold enough here so I could only imagine what camping would be like there. I am now comfortably dug in with full hook up consisting of water, electric, and sewer. A nice private view of the lake and a very reasonable daily fee of $10 may just keep be here for a good while.
My stay with family was wonderful, and as an added bonus Daniel and Ashley drove up from South Florida for a four day visit at Christmas. We even had snow for the occasion. As I have expressed before, my granddaughter Sydney is an unusual child, very bright, funny, determined and most adorable. She has captured my heart. I will miss her.
So, the plan is to head up to Michigan after my stay here in South Carolina then to Ontario and west through the other provinces in Canada consisting of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, north through the Yukon Territory, Alaska and Denali National Park for an extended stay as my final destination. Canada is packed with National Parks so finding an amazing place to camp should not be an issue. There are so many places I would like to see, but as I am not on a schedule and as I always say, “you can’t see everything”, I will fly by the seat of my pants and just enjoy what I can when I can. Stay tuned for entries to follow and enjoy with me my Alaska adventure, but for now enjoy some pictures of my stay in North Carolina. TC…

                                                      What a face!

                       Yes, that's correct, I am only three years old.               

On behalf of my country and all the little people, like me, I'd like to thank you for your interest and continued support.
