Our Trip Map

Tuesday, June 3, 2014

Our stay at Walmart in Chippewa Falls, WI, was a great stop. It was another sunny day with the temp being about 67 when we started out for the day. We stopped at a McDonald's to take advantage of their free wifi so we could post to our blog. We headed up to Duluth, MN, and got on Hwy 2. The ride on Hwy. 2 reminded us so much of going through the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It was a nice trip without much traffic. We traveled though Minnesota and understand why they call it the land of a thousand lakes! We are staying tonight in Bemidji, MN, at the Royal Oaks Campground. We even got to meet with Paul Bunyan and his blue ox in town tonight. We also enjoyed the community fire at the campground where we got to meet a couple from Idaho who are doing full-time camping. Maybe by the time we are finished with our trip we'll feel like full-time campers too! We are going to enjoy a good nights sleep with the weather being somewhat on the cool side, which will make for good sleeping. Goodnight friends!

  1. Really enjoying the trip with you Uncle Rich and Aunt Mary! If you're looking for other free WiFi - I know Starbucks has it as well (and some very tasty drinks too)! Too bad our Timmy's in Canada doesn't have it yet! They'd make a great stop too!

    1. Loved hearing from you Val. We seem to be finding WiFi pretty good along the way. Probably it won't be as good once we get traveling in places north of Calgary, but we'll keep posting when we can. We are really enjoying our trip.

  2. I love meeting new people by the campfire. That can make an interesting story all by itself.
