Day 45 Thunder Bay (again)

The day from Dryden to Thunder Bay was delightfully uneventful. We stayed here on the way down so knew exactly where we were going and what to expect. It may not sound like a marvelous adventure, but it’s a great travel day! The smoke was greatly reduced and the rain stopped so we were all good!

Just a pretty little stroll before bed!

I even love how you need to work for everything you have, and what you want becomes less. This morning as we had breakfast and prepared to move on, I found myself thinking – this will all be much easier to do when I get home! I was feeling grumbly! A sure sign it’s time to be home!
