One Day Older...One Day Wiser...I Hope

Tuesday, December 2, 2014

The drive between Kenora and Thunder Bay is not that scenic in the Summer...it is even less so in the Winter when the lakes are frozen over and what little snow there is dirty. The drive was not exactly 'inspiring'. Even our stop at Kakabeka Falls was not what we are used to. It has the reputation of being the Niagara Falls of the North but today it was at least 90 % frozen over.

On the positive side, the sun shone and the temperature rose from minus 21 to a balmy minus 6...still not exactly San Diego weather but a heck of an improvement over the last couple of bone chilling days. We also made it past our intended destination of Thunder Bay and are in Nipigon for the night. We are again re-visiting a motel we stayed in while cycling in 2010. This time, however, we are not 'drowned rats'!

Sue asked me this morning how I felt about celebrating another birthday. My answer was "I feel one day older and one day wiser"!!!
