Wishing you a belated Merry
Christmas from site # 61 at MacGregor Point Provincial Park. It appears that the Park missed most of the
ice storm we had in Waterloo earlier this week. As we passed through the Drayton area yesterday (about a half
hour from Waterloo) it became obvious that the ice coating on trees, hydro
wires, etc. was heavier and the tree damage much worse than we experienced in
Waterloo.
The Park had more than a
foot of accumulated snow on the ground when we arrived early yesterday
afternoon and it has been snowing steadily since we awoke this morning. It's very beautiful. The Skating Oval appears to be a "work-in-progress"
but would guess that if the cold weather continues, it should be opening soon.
Last evening we had a knock
on the RV door at three different intervals.
The first was a lady from a nearby Yurt, offering us some chocolates and
Christmas greetings. Later in the
evening fellow Winter campers (a.k.a. Winter Warriors) John and Nikki brought
Christmas Greetings and a nice card.
The third time it was another group of Winter Warriors singing Christmas
carols. How thoughtful of these
campers.
We
plan to be here until New Year's day and are looking forward to seeing more
campers arriving at the Park, as well as the proliferation of wild life. Last evening as we got ready for bed, three
deer appeared on our camp site. This
morning the birds are also finding the freshly filled bird feeders.
