The horseflies abated to some degree and the road improved immensely. Coffee which has become a second breakfast was at Falcon Lake. Our server was in his red scarlet uniform and wished us all a safe day. Manitoba was handing out free hotdogs, cake and coffee at their info center. However Ontario's info center offered us nada. It was really hot so we took refuge at the side of the road for lunch.
We were startled by a highway motorcycle policeman who did a U-turn and flashed his lights. Were the laws different in Ontario??? It turns out that Carol's neice is an OPP member in Kenora and had sent him out to check our progress. Carol's neice and her husband joined us for supper during a wild storm that included hail. Yvonne and Jim (the Chefs de jour) were brilliant in making supper under a dripping oak tree.
We are heading south along highway 71 and 11. There wil be very few opportunities to update the blog for a while. Be in touch when we can.

Your blog is wonderful, the first thing I look for every morning! You must all be so proud of your accomplishments. I am very envious but do enjoy the trip through your eyes. Be careful in Ontario there is too much traffic 'everywhere'.
I think you are planning to follow highway 7 but don't forget you are welcome here if you change your plans and come along highway 2. We are only a couple of minutes south of it on the edge of the lake.
Take care,
Tony and Ruthy
