Bowmanville to Belleville
We took route 2 from Bowmanville at 9:30 this morning. Our first stop was Port Hope. As soon as I suggested we stop at a park bench and eat something, the skies opened up. The lightning started and the rain came down in buckets. The main street in Port Hope was closed for a street festival but the British Pantry was open for business so we ducked in for 2 pots of tea, pie and custard, and a packet of Digestive biscuits. Two hours later we were on our way. The whole day we seemed to be on the edge of a storm and we took shelter again in Brighton for more tea and soup. We finally rolled into Belleville at 6 pm somewhat wet and soggy, but a nice welcome from Tim, Lynn, Nancy, Barb and Brad cheered us up.
On an historical note we had 3 Tim’s eating, drinking and sleeping under the same roof . Lynn did a good job of not mixing us up and makng a great desert.

Good morning Cousin Tim and Euro Tim: glad to see that everything is going well - Mother Nature tends to throw a few curves but c'est la vie! Question for you Cousin ....will there be a book and or a sequel to this journey of the "Two Tims"? Great picture of Uncle Graham and Emily. Take care and be safe. Love, Cousin Sharron
Hello! I can't believe how great Uncle Graham and Aunt Emily look. They haven't changed a bit since I last saw them far too many years ago.
I hear Rickards White with an orange slice is good even though I am still only on the Red.
Comfy seats and tail winds to you both...
Melissa
