End of fall and plans for the winter.

Well, we had a great last couple of trip to end our RVing season for 2010. First we went to a small campground right on the Mississippi, across the river from Red Wing, MN. It was quite nice if a bit small, but the water was good, power pedestals were new and easy to get hookup to. No sewer because it is on a flood plain, but that wasn't a issue and they do have a pumper and dump station on site if you were staying longer. We were only about 12-15 feet from the water and it was great fun to watch the commerical river traffic and the recreational traffic as well. Some nice boats out there... Attached are a few pics that show how we were parked. The park is called Island Marina and Campground. Here is a link:

I would suggest you read the history. The area has quite a checkered past and is quite interesting to read about.







After that, we drove to Apple Valley, MN and stayed at the Lebanon Hills CG. Really nice large sites and right in the city close to everything in the metro area. Spend 5 days there getting caught up on Dr visits etc in the city, some shopping etc. Then it was off to the Grand Casino RV Park in Hinckley. We went there for two reasons. It is near home and a good place to stop to get things settled and cleaned before going home and also to attend event. This time we saw Chef Taylor Forence and a week later saw Alan Jackson. Both ere good fun but AJ is really a great act to watch and listen to. We just left the RV there between events and went home to take care of some business, Mary went to Toronto on business, between events as well. Had a lot of rain that week and there was plently of flooding the SE part on MN and SW part of WI once again.



Last trip was to our Wisconsin Allegro club Rally in Wausau. Had a great time with our fellow Allegro owners and were hosted by Kings Campers. Nice fish dinner on Friday evening and a chili dump on Saturday even followed by some fellowship with the other memebers. We left our RV at Kings to have some minor service completed and they will store it for us until we head south.

That's it folks...Unil next year, or....
