Welcome to our Blog! We have been having a wonderful time traveling around the country in our Airstream. We have made a lot of new friends both on the road and right here. We are glad you stopped by!

Magnetic Hill
Canada, Oh Canada. What a wonderful view as we crossed over the border. Actually it looks just like the view we had on the other mountain top except we needed passports to see it.
Not sure, didn't research it but it is pretty cool! Just over the line we came upon this really cool stained glass like monument in the middle of a picnic area.
OK, we have been to a lot of (well maybe more than just a lot of) tourist type spots in our travels but this is one you gotta check out. Actually there are several "Magnetic Hills" all around the world. But this is the one we were looking for. To be honest, traveling north we completely missed it!
The sign says it all if you read the left side of the sign. This is definitely a low cost attraction!
The circle and arrow show where the sign above is located and the horizontal line is where we started. We followed the instructions as posted and sure enough! 8 MPH going backwards, 9,200 pounds going backwards up hill! Very cool, we did it twice. It doesn't take much to entertain us.
