Pics the blog wouldn't take on the last posting.
These pics were taken at Medicine Hat ---
St. Pat's Roman church on the left, and stations of the cross carved in brick near the church by a local artist.
Tried to find a sight-seeing trip over Isle Royale while at Grand Portage and at Thunder Bay,
but no luck. The boat trip, usually available, was not yet running -- boat was in sick bay.
We were told that an airplane trip over that much water required 2 pilots and 2 engines, since
we would fly from a Canadian port and over US airspace. I guess we should have tried at
Grand Marais while in MN.
Stayed over nite at Rainbow Falls and saw them. We couldn't figure out if they were falls
or rapids. Stopped at Eagle Canyon east of Rainbow Falls. Pics show the longest suspension bridge
in Canada --- and we walked it.
At Wawa we met George and Arlene from BC. Had a nice visit.
We got back to MI at Soo, and we were really surprised at the lack of traffic --- particularly
that there were few RVs. The price of fuel is taking a toll. However, Memorial Day being a
week early could also be a factor, even tho the weather was nearly perfect. Campgrounds
were only about 1/3 full. NOW THAT'S UNHEARD OF.
We found and had dinner at Bentley's Restaurant at St. Ignace --- we've had better.
Took the catamaran (couldn't post the pic) on a quick trip to Mackinac Island.
Stopped at Alpena, MI to see Al's brother Roy and family. All are doing well.
We haven't seen Bill or Tom for ages. Sorry we missed Tanni. We parked right out front.
We are parked in Linda-and-Jim's driveway at Plymouth, and are nearly all moved in.
