Thessalon, ON

When last I wrote we had made a dash to Thessalon, ON to hide out from rowdy weather. Cruising often gives us a lopsided view of the towns we visit. Thessalon is one of these. Wandering around as we are apt to do, we discovered that the town has a lot of character. It was Canada's Civic holiday the three days we were there. No one could explain what the holiday was about except to say that it was a way to give a few people (mainly government employees) another long summer weekend. After dinner one night we heard music off in the distance, walked towards it and found a spectacular sunset, a nice beach with a beautiful view, a temporary stage made out of a tractor trailer with a passable rock band in it across from a congested trailer park/camp ground where everyone looked like they were having a ball. Next stop America!
