A couple of days ago we went over to a little town about 16 miles to the east of Meaford called Thornbury. Like Meaford it has a population of around 5000 and is right on the Georgian Bay. Here is a shot of main street with the bay at the end of the street.




And the Thornbury marina which is attracting more and more upscale folks who can buy and maintain all these nice boats. In the center of the picture is a time-share condo which ex government folks can rent through the Armed Forces Vacation site. Leigh and Brooks stayed there one year ... $299 for the week.




Highway 26 as it passes over the Beaver River bridge; looking west toward the center of town.





And the Dam Pub, right above the dam on the river ... they get an "A" for clever names; as well as hundreds of single malt scotches.

This is what we came back to in the campground up on the hill. We are at about 1200 feet above Georgian Bay and the storms seem a lot closer and more exciting in the Flying Scotsman.

For the last couple of months the Roebuck campground has proven to be excellent with nice open, wide, gravel sites and a management crew that really cares. This will be our home until late September.
