This is a very nice cosy campground on the edge of the Niagara River between the falls and Ft. Erie.
I can highly recommend Betty's Restaurantwww.bettysrestaurant.com 8921 Sodom Rd. Chippewa(Niagara's hidden gem) for the best home cooking you never cooked!!!
Lots of Wineries for sampling and buying!!!
Lots of activities at The Falls!!!
Lots of shade to just relax in!!!

OK, Alf, we are registered in the same spot as last year, I tried to get further away from you but she said this was the best spot since it is not down wind from you??
I am also bringing you some Kicking Horse Coffee-"Kick Ass" is it's name, roasted in British Columbia, Canada. Have you ever heard of it? Made me think of you!
Expect to arrive Thursday. Going to try Betty's this time. I expect not to recognize you since you will have gotten 10 years younger looking upon retiring later this year!! Congrats!!

That coffee is FANTASTC! I'll be at your door Saturday morning. Not to be unfair, we can taste test my other favourite coffee

Coffee royal?

Here is a link to some of the wineries you can tour. The $59 packages include a admission for two and a couple of bottles of wine. Wine and Tour Gift Experiences | Samba Days

I've got promocode for the $10 Henry Pelham basic tours, good for two. (hint: "freetour") http://henryofpelham.com/the-winery-tours/ but it seems to be too early to make a reservation.

Hi Guys
Last year was our first time at the winery rally. Had a great time. Great location. Have booked our site. Not sure which one but tried for the same as last year. Hope to see you all. Maybe we will see you at the other two meets this summer. Lew and Wendy

Hi: Lew Harpelle... Glad to see you're back...Looking forward to some fun at 2013 Niagara Wine Escape.
To bad I won't be retired until the end of the year. I was looking forward to being 10 years younger.

So you're putting all the Escapers in one basket, eh? Like birds of a feather.
That will leave the rest of the park for all us little guys to spread out in.
Joan and I have again booked No. 66 near the indoor plumbing. Looking forward to visiting with everyone again.

Btw Alf, retirement is great and your year will go by fast if you keep busy. Then it's perpetual holidays.

Hi: james kent... Glad to see you're back. My understanding of retirement from a friends wife is "1/2 as much income twice as much husband". I also think there's no paid vacation or stats. either!!!

The first month is like an extended holiday.
then the boredom kicks in.
Then comes the biggest "Honey-do" list you've ever seen and the days blend into being all Saturdays.
A trip to the grocery store to follow your wife up and down the aisles becomes a major event.
Hint......GET A HOBBY!

[Alf S.]

Hi: James Kent... Does Escaping count as a "Hobby"?

Hi: Mrshobo... Glad you guys can make it again. Looking forward to tasting this years wines.
Hi: MC1...Funny thing how we always get to Ft. Erie/Buffalo border crossing area around meal time. Betty's is so close to the QEW& Sodom rd. exit. Yummmmm!!! Had to stop for a visit on our way home from the south.

yes, it is going to be a long wait until December, but Xmas comes early this year.

[Roy in TO]

Congrats on the sale Jim,
If you don't mind downsizing a bit, you can borrow my boler for the meet. Not sure where you would put the pups though.
Or you'll have to wait another year to check out the reefer.
