Yeah, it's nice to be back in Ontario and we are happy to sit here at Buttercup Ridge for a while but are looking forward to getting more northerly in a month or so to our summer spot. We are pretty much recovered from the drive and looking forward to a summer season of good clean air, nice weather and some family visits. <br /><br />Take care, be safe, <br />DebOn a long and lonesome highway....https://www.blogger.com/profile/13585276461507236822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220239671215406231.post-10462518237350283302020-03-28T13:01:01.718-04:002020-03-28T13:01:01.718-04:00Thanks Al.

It's always nice to be back in Ontario and I appreciate you folks having most of the snow down here in the southwest and south central areas of Ontario cleared away for us returning travellers.

You are correct, it could have been much worse but one's mind doesn't shut down until after the fact and the 'what if's' are stressful. <br />We've been back in Ontario for 4 full days and I'm recovered to the point that I'm able to do a bit of cleaning here around the farmhouse. So I guess I consider myself recovered now. <br /><br />Take care, be safe, <br />DebOn a long and lonesome highway....https://www.blogger.com/profile/13585276461507236822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220239671215406231.post-20385121887348366702020-03-28T12:57:31.062-04:002020-03-28T12:57:31.062-04:00We are kind of home, not in our summer location wh...We are kind of home, not in our summer location which will be about a month away. We are looking forward to warmer weather and sunny days. Nothing says spring like green hues off in the distance in all of those trees. <br />I think the suit was a form of 'self isolation' to keep a social distance thing happening. Just a guess though. <br /><br />Take care, be safe, <br />DebOn a long and lonesome highway....https://www.blogger.com/profile/13585276461507236822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220239671215406231.post-55068508469713916242020-03-28T07:44:03.862-04:002020-03-28T07:44:03.862-04:00Welcome home!

I enjoy the drives around 200-250 miles per day, they seem quite simple and relaxing without stress or strain for the most part. However some days we do what we must do and now Riley and I can relax, rest and get ready for our last bit of travel to our summer location. We hope to move on before the end of April. I'll try to post once a week during the summer but I can't promise. <br /><br />Take care, be safe, <br />DebOn a long and lonesome highway....https://www.blogger.com/profile/13585276461507236822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220239671215406231.post-78632452996269218322020-03-27T13:47:26.145-04:002020-03-27T13:47:26.145-04:00Thanks Ruth.

Gotta love the auto club, but at least the people who came to help helped and got you back on the road. Recognized several of the pictures. Highway 60 in New Mexico and the one as you come into Detroit on I-75 you go right and we go left there heading towards our kids to name a few. Long days for sure. Take care and stay healthy.

Your days were so long, I usually drive only 200 miles a day with my trailer and many days that seems like too much so I know how tired you must have been. I so enjoy reading your blog and appreciate you publishing it. You all stay safe and I will look forward to your postings next winter!Gail in Buckeye AZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01088922494221307851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220239671215406231.post-15127583485473805752020-03-27T10:52:24.695-04:002020-03-27T10:52:24.695-04:00Welcome home..we're not too far from you just ...Welcome home..we're not too far from you just north of Belleville.
