What a lovely weekend for a….”Road Trip”!!!
Laura was babysitting Alex yesterday so Tom and I headed out for an all day motorcycle outing. We first headed south to the Chatham Airport to see the Chatham Aeronauts R/C Model Flying Club’s 6th Annual All-Ontario Scale Fly-in. The show featured turbine jets, combat teams, helicopters, and free-style aerobatics. There was also a display of classic cars and full-size aircraft. We spied an Ultralight and chatted with the owner and instructor about his craft. A neighbour, Larry Anderson was there and I admired his all original 57 T-Bird convertible and his 65 Corvette ragtop.
We had a blast last year and this was definitely on our summer agenda. It was much bigger this year with the new location and visiting pilots and planes.

Our next adventure took us west to Lighthouse Cove on Lake St Clair to hunt up our friends Tony and Bonnie. We found them at a marina picnic table near their boat enjoying the sun and low humidity. We had lots of laughs, a few brews and caught up on a years worth of news.
To end a wonderful day we had supper at the Lighthouse Restaurant. We had a ? carafe of house Chardonnay to go with my pickeral and Tom’s spicy Tai shrimp. We enjoyed the sunset over coffee and an apple crisp. The ride home was fun as we chose the twisty Raleigh route along the river. We look forward to our next “Ride”.
