It starts late enough on Sunday to allow people to arrive in the morning, and rough camping is available for those that wish to arrive on Saturday. I hope to see you there.

Our last tour of 2012 was held Sep. 21-23 in Muskoka hosted by the Rolls’ and the Wrightmans. It was well attended and we had a great time. At Friday evening’s get together, it was wonderful to see old friends and new faces around the campfire. Saturday morning, we started off by having a delicious pancake breakfast cooked by the hosts at Ron’s place of business which is where we were camped for the weekend. After we filled ourselves with this feast we were off to the Grace & Speed Museum as well as parking the cars at a car show.
It was an awesome tour around the Muskoka area. The weather provided some challenges but did not spoil our fun. Some rain here and there was one thing, but no one expected it to be quite that cold. Friday night was perfect for sitting at the fire, and then it rained all night while we slept leaving us with some swampy areas in the morning. Saturday night was pretty cold (and wet) for fireside chat. Ron's facility allowed us to socialize inside. One person took on the responsibility of using up the firewood and sat alone at the fire for some time.
August took us to New York to the Bakers’ homestead. Our first stop Saturday was a candy shop with a huge variety of candy. Some were even spotted having ice cream. We then toured along passing the infamous Attica Prison and on to the Hidden Valley Animal Adventure which was a 60 acre park with over 200 animals and 30 exotic species, all roaming about. We were taken on a one hour wagon ride through the park to see these many varieties of animals. Some even got mud splattered on them by the water buffalo who ventured out of their mud hole to beg for treats.
