| Well,
reality finally caught up with us. We had moved so slow, headed so
much farther west and ventured so much farther north into Canada then
I had ever imagined. Add to that the fact that we spent 5 days in
Victoria and it had to add up to our having to play catch up. We have
1 week to get to Niagara and somewhere around 2,500 miles to go -
ouch. The good news is that the next two thousand miles are about
as flat, strait and barren as it gets - yuck. The other good news
is that the fact that the Canadian police virtually never monitor
the traffic speeds out here in the middle of nowhere and you have
a formula for speed and the opportunity to bang out a lot of miles
fast. The few pictures from the next few days will tell the rest of
the story. |
