Montana Bound

Adventures have been sparse in the past 2 years.  Other than Toronto once and Hearst a few times, we haven't been anywhere since our trip to the Alps because Covid Pandemic.  

Leaving Ottawa
Sophie is working in Montana for the summer, so we decided to go pick them up instead of having them fly back.  Great way for Rémi and I to go on an adventure.  Since we've been to Montana before, we will be making a longer route and going down to Iowa and Nebraska, 2 states we have not seen before.  We left this morning and made our way to our first stop:  Sault Ste-Marie, Ontario.  It was a pretty uneventful day of just driving.

In a nutshell:

  • Tons of traffic . 
  • Two groups of "freedumb convoy" - slowing traffic big time - I would've been swearing had I had to follow them... luckily for us, they were headed the opposite way.  What the hell do they want this time? 
  • Many large groups of motorcycles - wondering if they were coming back from their outing in Toronto earlier this week?
  • Beautiful sunshine and views.
  • A near accident - some dumbass almost pushed us into the ditch so they wouldn't have a head-on collision. Perhaps she should've left earlier if she was in a such a hurry.
  • Lunch in North Bay.
  • A walk along the waterfront.
  • Ice Cream at Holy Cow.
  • A night at the Water Tour Inn.

Wondering if the Coastguard eat
Beavertails instead of doughnuts? 

Fun with the cows
Remi's turn!
