September 14-15, 2009 Travel, troubles and more adventures….
Monday morning we arrived back into the good ol’ USA. We made it back across the border with only a quick peek inside by the guard, phew, always makes me a bit nervous even though I know we haven’t done anything wrong. The drive was fairly short one to Niagara Falls N.Y. As we were crossing the river, on the toll bridge, we noticed that our brakes were smoking (not a good sign). Mike had been a bit concerned about them, but this definitely was a message to get them looked at. So we found a very nice RV dealer that could get us in first thing Tuesday morning. So we made camp there in their little RV camp ground. Used the day to run errands, do laundry, give the little “toad” a good cleaning inside and out.
Tuesday bright and early we dropped the MoHo off at the repair shop and headed off to see the U.S. side of the falls. A beautiful fall day, weather was perfect. We walked the dogs over to see both the American Falls and Horseshoe Falls, the water was so green, and we saw several rainbows --- supposed to be good luck. Think it might have been, because the RV shop called and said it was only brake pads, not a full brake job – “oh thanks goodness”. We returned to camp and were able to bail the MoHo out just as they were closing. Karen just about had a heart attack, when Mike came back with the bill and said” it was $8,300.” She was ready to pack up and head back home, trip over!!! Ooooops Mike says “I mean $830.”, still a sting, but not the end of the adventure. Oh the fun just keep on coming!

sorry, no photos. Sometimes the wifi just wont let photos load. I will repost with photos later. Mike
