It is 9am Monday morning and you already know where I am parked and what I am doing….I am about 2 hours from the Canadian Border in Niagara falls and hope to cross over before lunch and then be with Joy and Colin..catching you up from this morning had a long drive through really uneventful secondary highways

all the while listening to an enthralling women’s soccer game from Germany it was between Brazil and USA and the commentator at the end said it was the best game he had ever seen men or women and I tend to agree it sounded so exciting and had everything from goals in the first and last minute, red cards, penalties re-taken and extra time and then a shoot out!!!

fffff

with the USA coming out as victors…it really was a great way to pass a couple of hours!!!

Around 4pm I had lost another hour now on eastern time zone I looked for a place to stop for a while and pretty soon found this great park on the shores of Lake Erie..

Just curious... Do you normally ask if it is OK to park overnight in Walmart and if so, have you ever been refused? We actually found many of them that gave an initial "No" from the Customer Service desk but changed to a "Yes" from a "manager" after we reminded them of Walmart's official policy of allowing RVers.
