Saying Goodbye to Riverwood
Fergus, Ontario, Canada
Sunday Worship, July 25
Truck Show – Part 8
This is where Cerwin enjoyed his first cup of coffee each morning and checked on the weather. (You can see my laptop and case on the couch.)
This is what I saw if I turned around.
This was the scene in front of me.
The Peel’s living room.
The sunroom
Marilyn preparing breakfast.
I am going to miss the delicious breakfasts and Bert & Marilyn’s pampering.
I just had to do a final walkaround before heading to the truck show.
A final view of the beautiful setting they call Riverwood.
Chaplain Len (right) went to the truck show earlier than the rest of us, to get set up for morning worship. Kingsway Quartet could be heard in a much broader area than those sitting and standing nearby.
Len shared a short, challenging message.
Before morning worship, we noticed a really smokin’ rig enter the grounds. When he was asked why he didn’t come for the judging competition yesterday, he said, “That is no big deal to me, and this way someone else could win.”
It was named “The Godfather.”
The polished aluminum floor was definitely a no-shoes-area.
Cerwin was impressed with the 10″ stacks.
Remember when Chrome Shop Mafia was on TV, and The Boyz transformed ordinary rigs into something extraordinary? This was one of their masterpieces.
We had to wait to pull the chapel out of the grounds until the other exiting truck traffic slowed down.
The Fergus Truck Show 2010 is now a wonderful memory.
Since it was late afternoon when we left, our goal for that evening was Bordertown Travel Plaza, just before the Canadian/United States border.
