I’m starting to get tired again, maybe I should pull up at this three-story mot…wait…three-stories?

Thunder Bay again last night

See the featured picture, above the title? That’s the Sleeping Giant.

“It requires no imagination whatever to see that this form resembles the sleeping body of a giant, arms folded across his massive chest as in the majesty of death.”

I don’t hate this town, but this whole area seems to have a pall hanging over it. Thunder Bay is the sound of trains shunting in the night, thunder without lightning. Thunder Bay is massive grain elevators at the waters edge, obstructing the the inhabitants’ view of a most spectacular environment.

As a town, it just seems grey. It leaves me wanting.

So I find the Terry Fox Highway of Courage, and the monument, created 25 years ago.

It is a beautiful tribute, in an amazing place

Can we lighten things up a bit, please?

Okay

*Canadian Tire

And now for some real Canadiana

If you are Canadian, and don’t know Paddle to the Sea, shame on you

Yay, a motorcycle pic in Terrace Bay

Oh, another thing about Terrace Bay. Cross-my-heart-hope-to-die. 94 octane premium? $1.71.9/liter. No wonder the bike is for sale.

White River

There’s all kinds of wrong in this picture

Apparently, Mr. and Mrs. Pooh were gettin’ busy in 1914

Everyone’s seen the Big Goose from Wawa. In fact, there are several. But, have they seen this?

I’m so far behind posting things that I’m now back in Ottawa. 27 days after setting out.

I promise I will populate this with many more photos (soon) and video (no promises there, but I’ll try). Stay tuned. If you want to.
