This is good news for us as Canadian Snowbirds heading south for the winter but not good news for Canadian tourism and the Canadian manufacturing sector. However, for right now, I'm happy about it! It's taken three decades or more to happen! As a child I remember going shopping in the U.S. as we were very close to the border and our dollar was worth more than the U.S. dollar at one point but that was a lot of years ago.

This morning after my walk, we got ready to meet Betty and Garth at the Lindsay Golf & Country Club for brunch. The Lindsay Golf Club used to be in downtown Lindsay where the shopping mall is now. They sold the land so that the mall could be built and the new golf course is now at Lindsay Road and Hwy 7. We've never been there so it was a new experience and okay, not great however the food did agree with Gordon.


After brunch Betty and I sat outside for a while while Garth went to the putting green and Gordon went to take some photos. When Gordon came back we left Betty and Garth and went into town to do a few errands then back to the RV where I went for another walk and then sat outside under the awning for a while.



It was a nice, bright, sunny day but on the cool side with a high of 22C (72F). Here's a photo I took in the park of the autumn leaves on one of the trees.
