I haven't the foggiest clue of what Rossport or Terrace Bay Look Like

The drive from Wawa to Thunder Bay is fantastic. The roads are a bit hilly and winding. The pavement is good. The views are spectacular. Okay, I’m making up the spectacular view part, cuz we really don’t know. The fog was so thick we could hardly see the edge of the road at times.

We stopped to pick up some lunch at KFC in some little nameless town that had no parking for the truck and trailer. J & B went on to find a picnic site while Alb and I ran in to get a bucket of chicken at a gas station-motel-KFC-PizzaHut-RobbinsDonuts. I thought she was joking when she said they don’t sell chicken. Seriously. A KFC that doesn’t sell chicken. We had pizza.

Even after the fog burned off and the sun came out, there is a chill in the air. You can feel autumn looming. The trees are starting to turn colours a little bit. Temperatures did get up to 25 or so but it’s just not the same as it was six weeks ago.

We arrived at the same KOA in Thunder Bay that we stayed in exactly five weeks ago. They recognized us and welcomed us home. It was nice. (When you wear a 10 inch braided beard no one forgets you easily.)
