For some reason Thursday’s ride seemed extraordinarily long. There was no fog or wind to contend with, and the scenery around the Kenora area is pretty with lakes around every corner.
The temperature never got above 17 and by the time we pulled into the Pine Tree Campground half way between Kenora and Winnipeg I was chilled to the bone. The camp was beautiful and peaceful with lots of trees and creek running right behind our trailer.
Barbee and I were glad to find a little 4 table restaurant onsite and dragged the boys over for supper. Supper didn’t sit well with Barbee and she was down for the count by the time I got back from the free showers where I stood in straight hot water for 15 minutes to burn off the day’s chill.
This would have been the perfect campsite to have a fire and sit around half the night; it was so quiet and beautiful. We didn’t take advantage of it. I think we were all asleep by 10 o’clock. That was a record for us.
