We hit the road at 8:30 am with a full load in the van and the guys on their bikes. The day was a little cloudy but sunny enough that Dale ended up with a sunburned face, with his nose getting the worst of it. Sunscreen is a wonderful thing when worn. ;)
We saw a couple of funny road signs: “Oil change $40 and Worms” and “Fudge Factory Moccasins”. There were also a ton of motorcycles on the road taking advantage of the holiday... lots of waving.
I was rigged with an intercom on my hat, Caroline was armed with a plethora of maps and Liv had a wide assortment of electronics at her fingertips. Dale and Jim rode their bikes like veterans and did a great job following the van and avoiding the lousy drivers. We made good time with only a few stops for food and fuel and ended our day around 6 pm in Sault Ste. Marie.
The hotel we stayed in was awesome with a Caseys Restaurant attached, pool and indoor/outdoor hot tubs. We took advantage of it all after a tiring day and heard the Canada Day fireworks in the distance that night.
