Moved to the North!

Hi Everyone,

We have closed down our business in Toronto and I have "Semi" retired from the Airlines ha.... and we moved up to Sault Ste Marie Ontario and purchased the KOA Campground. We took over last week and are excited to be here. Now we can really get some real use out of our Mobile Suite in the winter when we travel South! 6 months here and 6 away! Good thing we fitted the Volvo with a Smart!

We want to invite everyone coming up our way in their travels to come stay. We can accommodate the big rigs. (there is a nice one sitting on a site right now!) ha wink.gif

Here is our web site in case anyone wants to call or come by. http://www.koa.com/where/on/55150/

Here is a pic of a camper that pulled out this AM, they are on a world tour that is to last 10 years! They will head to the NW Territories and then the Yukon and Alaska from here. I don't think he will have any issues with bad roads!

Cheers,
Bill

As I've already mentioned to you both; your grins over this move have outstripped your grins when buying the Volvo. You must be saving a lot on Q-tips as your ears have dissappeared!

I love the idea of you zooming around a compground in a golf cart instead of Georgetown in a Corvette. Haaar!

Miss you five already.

Re: Moved to the North!

Bill & Joan....you sure surprised the h... out of me when I read you had purchased a KOA campground in Sault Ste Marie. Your not only a camper but also a camp owner now. WOW!

Shirley and I wish you both great success in your new venture and will be sure to stop by for a couple of days the next time we are in the area.

All the best.........Geoff & Shirley
