We arrived in Montreal last night and moved again this morning to a
different campsite. John came this morning and guided us over then called
another GMC owner
Les to come over for a visit. following this Glenn and I went over to
Les's house to view his work(S) in progress. His coach is off the ground,
the frame right out and parts
from another coach (to be used - came from a burnt out coach) He is
mechanically experienced and will no doubt turn this coach into a well
running machine.

we then piled into one coach and headed to he Metro subway system for a
walking tour of downtown and the old warehouse/dock area. Had a good lunch
at a place specialising in
Poutine. by the time 6pm rolled around all our feet were in need of a foot
rub. Back to camp and set out the table for another wonderful meal.

Tomorrow we entertain Les and his wife joining us for breakfast and giving
her a tour of our coaches. Then off to Quebec City for 2 nights - tour the
old city and more. . . .
Have to stay away from the Plains of Abraham Sat evening due to a concert
there with Madonna. They are expecting 100,000 people. This and being the
long weekend.
Funny - the campsite we were at last night wasfully booked for the
weekend. the one we are at now is possibly 15% full.

ON this trip from the west coast to here I noticed very few places - Jasper
and Banff - that were lose to being full. Saw few holiday trailers,
motorhomes - tenters on the roads.
Definitely the economy is not doing well.
Some of the roads are just plain bad dirt.
