Traveling to Woodstock, Ontario, Canada

 

We were awaked by our alarm at 3:30 AM ~ left the house at 4:30 ~ and the International Office at 5:45 ~ a few minutes later we were traveling by Three Mile Island Nuclear Plant.

 

Morning fog from the river as we approached Clarks Ferry Bridge.

 

The Susquehanna River at sunrise.

 

 

Driving along the river was beautiful this morning.

 

 

I usually pick up a Real Simple magazine when going on a long road trip.  I enjoy tips that can simplify my busy life.

 

Three levels of roadways in New York State.

 

I love traveling through the mountains.

 

Approaching the Canadian border at Fort Erie about 1:30 PM. 

 

Thanks for Praying!

After just a few questions we were permitted to enter Canada.  Chaplain Len (the Canadian chaplain who coordinated the trip for us) was pleased that it was so easy for us. 

Her major concern after reading our paperwork:  Why are you going to Woodstock if you are headed to Fergus?  Answer:  Because the person coordinating our trip lives in Woodstock.

 

It was neat to park TFC’s International Chapel in front of Woodstock, Ontario’s, permanent chapel ~ The Pathfinder.

Two chapels drew a lot of attention.

 

Two drivers asked me if we were expecting a large attendance at services tonight ~ that we needed two chapels!  I explained that we were taking the one chapel to the Fergus Truck Show in the morning.
