Digging for Treasure



We are currently in Sault Ste. Marie, ON, staying in a KOA.  For those of you who, like us, have no idea what a KOA is, let me tell you.

It is the full-service version of RV camping... Pool, mini golf, playground, staff in matching t-shirts, and a movie rental outlet.  It is just about the opposite of our place on Manitoulin Island, where we were much more secluded.  See above pic of Picabo digging for treasure beside an amazing waterfall!

No waterfalls at this KOA, but the kids love the pool and the amenities, and they "don't want to leave!"  The problem is that this full-service campground comes with a full service price tag.

We head to WAWA (that's just fun to say) tomorrow morning.  After that, Thunder Bay.

***Just a footnote, I love diesel.  From Markham to Sault Ste. Marie on only 3/4 tank of gas!    
- About 700 km, and over 8 hours of driving!  Waahooooo!!!
