North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan now Canada

We were hot footing it to Canada for July 1st for Canada day. Here are some photos, nothing too exciting. We have had a swim in Lakes Superior and Michigan and will do Huron next. Currently we are in Bruce Mines, a small town near Sault Saint Marie where we crossed the border. Just had a parade with fireworks etc. tonight. We have the RV parked in a restaurant parking lot right on the green where the festivities are happening. The band rotunda is about 10 meters from the door and we can stay there the night. Might be a late night though!

My Cousin came down from Winnipeg and met us in Grand forks Nth Dakota/Minnesota.  We paid (with real money!) for two nights at a state park campground in the city. It was really nice, and a great place to see Heather. The kids also liked it because there is a Cabelas across the road where they could look at and buy knives.

Plenty of S’mores have been eaten
Our favorite restaurant, waiting for pizza at Costco
Duluth at the head of lake Superior, put on the rain for us. Perfect weather for….garage saleing! I did get some good books.
On the shores of Lake Superior
Lake Michigan was superior to Superior as far as the water temperature that’s for sure!
A staple breakfast, Costco pancake mix!
Our park for tonight
Night in National Forest. George is trying out the new bow and arrow that we added to the sports equipment collection.

Studying at Sault Saint Marie Locks
For nostalgias sake I had to take the family over the Mackinac bridge. I did it when I was 10 (Back then it was still the biggest in the world, not anymore).
Charlotte getting Tatts for Canada day, I had to fix Parks Canada’s air compressor first.
Heading into Canada, we’ll be heading out in 3 days time for 4th July next door, then back again!
I can drive 200 feet above the water!
