Sault, USA

Soo Locks Campground
Site #? - $22US, p/w, Internet

We arrived at Sault Ste. Marie, the US side, Michigan. We had planned on going further down the road, but it is already 4:30 p.m.  We didn't make good time today with all the road construction. We did have one loss of power to the truck just out of Sudbury.  We pulled over to the side of the road, re-started and it seems fine again. Weird thing. It might be time to trade this truck in!! Too many miles on the odometer and things are starting to go!

This was our best trip through US customs yet.  We didn't have to show them our fridge or anything in the 5th wheel. We answered a few questions and he told us to go! I'm sure we aren't supposed to bring wood, but he didn't ask about that (and now I'll dig my lemon & lime out of the garbage can (in baggies!)

So this campground is right on the water at the locks and we got the LAST site available! (Our site is not as nice as the water sites.  We are road side, so we will likely have road noise to contend with! There is a campground just down from here, but they are also full -- some RV rendezvous taking place apparently. Anyway, we will watch the ships come up the locks and do a bit of grocery shopping for oranges, etc!!
