We woke up this morning dry and that is more than most at our campground could say. The boys headed off on their bikes down to the catch and release pond. Alex took his tea to go and joined them. Shari did some housekeeping and enjoyed her coffee in peace. The fishing was very successful. Christopher caught at least 15 Sunfish, Andrew caught Sunfish and a 3 lb. large mouth bass, 
Steven watched and played on the shore (no interest) and Alex caught “the BIG one” he was about 6lbs. They also met a guy that fishes on the Bass Pro Curcuit. He gave them some lures and shared some fish tales. Andrew is very interested in how you can earn a living while fishing. His only problem is he will not touch the fish, therefore, he would need a “fish caddy like person” to handle that little detail for him. Alex then had to come back to the “home on wheels” and take care of business….his first empting out of the beast. I know there are a lot of yo
u out there, you know who you are, who are dying to see how that worked out. I have to say it went very smooth; he was able to do it without the nose clips. I will say that there has been proper monitoring of who is going where, when and how often and all is good so far. No backage all around. We checked out of the campground and went back to “The Falls.” They are very pretty during the day. We decided to park the RV and take ou
r bikes around to see the sites….what a day. We crossed over into Canada; we wanted to see the falls from that side (much more of a direct shot). We parked, walked down and took some more photos. We went to our first gift shop of the trip (you know there are more to come) and picked up a few items. We met a Mountie and of course could not pass up the opportunity to have the boys pose for a photo. Our trip through Canada was non eventful and for most of it or so it seemed we had lake Ontario to our right…..it is huge! We made it back into the USA….there was a small worry 
they wouldn’t let us back in!! We are in Port Huron, Michigan. We have now witnessed our second Great Lake and they really are “great”, when you look across the horizon, you do not see anything but water! We had a nice dinner (burgers) and finally were able to sit around the campfire with an adult drink in our hands….heaven at last! The boys checked out the campground and discovered go-karts, after dinner we took a spin. Andrew in his own car, Alex and Steven were teamed up and Shari and Christopher. Let’s just say that as Christopher and I passed everyone his comment was, “so long suckers” and that sums up the race. Team Shari/Christopher now has the first win under their belt! I believe the world’s biggest go-kart track is in Wisconsin Dells so this competition is not over. We ended our night with smores around the campfire and then showers for everyone….Alex was worried there might have been a hint of stickiness.

Keep the fishing stories coming..interested to hear what else you catch. Sounds like a great trip.
Soooo, glad to hear all the trains are coming and going nicely and no clothes pin necessary! Let's see, 2 days and finally a shower, nice, let's hope the a/c works well in the RV. Later!
Looks as if Alex might have had his thumb on the scale of that 6 pounder! Just keep cleaning out the pot Buddy, and no one will question you!
Miss you - Have fun, Jane
I am having such a good time reading this.This is the most fun in My life right now(not good) I sure hope Niagara Falls was all and more than you had hoped for.You sure have waited long enough As far as the emptying of the pot... (I think it's your bro who call it the trains) here, it's the bear coming out of the cave, which I think is more fitting to this trip.
Hope... (J is Juliet's account)
ok "J" I must admit when I read your comment "bears coming out of the cave" I chuckled out loud. Quite appropriate for this trip, I can tell you know the Besterman's well.
"So long suckers", hysterical! Sounds like my Boo Boo Butter Roll is fresh as always. Like Uncle Andrew I am relieved and elated to know that the "Beast situation" is under control. I can't wait to hear about the behind the scenes drama... will Andrew leave his parents to join a hippee, fishing commune, what did B-Ven buy at his first gift shop, has Boo Boo defected from the besterman family to join a renagade Harley posse. I can just see him cruising the wild, untamed freeway on a miniature Hog, built for speed.
