Sorry we missed Gronks but I do remember seeing it. We did drive 28 and it was very nice - then a quick trip up 75 to the border. Thanks for the energy.<br /><br />liberality - When we drove to portland from Providence we took a more southerly route mostly on 80. It was also pretty neat but this one was far more spectacular. <br /><br />marja-leena - I still haven't taken any pictures - well, a few but I haven't looked. I've just found ones that are close. <br /><br />I've been thinking the whole continent is almost to big to be encompassed in the human mind.. or behind :-)<br /><br />randal - You know I wrote that for you :-)<br /><br />jimm - You're telling me :-) Couldn't wait to get away from that place and at least the storm lit it up a bit.<br /><br />nancy - We've spent a lot of the drive imagining what it would be like in winter. Today and yesterday we've been far north in Ontario. yikes!<br /><br />gary - I've been stealing pics Gary but I'm glad you like my choices :-) It has been a trip so far and that's fer sure.<br /><br />gfid - We've seen a lot of narrow Ontario roads today and a big part of that was due to construction on the Trans Canada between North Bay and Ottawa. Nevertheless the scenery on the way from the Soo has been beautiful.

I remember a lovely drive between Duluth and Canada, I was in my early teens traveling with my parents then who were visiting Finnish friends along the way. And yes, tell me about boring drives across the prairies, have done it too many times across the Canadian side. It has its beauty but just too much of it. Continued happy travels!marja-leenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634791656471132347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8764563741359701027.post-12318401126400895462010-08-31T06:35:52.365-07:002010-08-31T06:35:52.365-07:00We went on a cross country trip once, but we drove...We went on a cross country trip once, but we drove through Kansas and it was a yawn-fest to say the least.

Too bad you didn't find Gronk's in Superior for dinner. A great place, it's right on Highway 2.<br />Don't know what way you'rew taking across Michigan's Upper Peninsula, but I'd suggest Michigan Highway 28. Catch it in Wakefield, MI. Cuts an hour off the travel time and sacrifices nothing in the way of scenic.<br />Whatever you do, I'm sending positive energy for a sfae and wonderful trip.<br /><br />Peace.Spadomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17781369901345409341noreply@blogger.com
