So goodbye to Canada - home of expensive fuel, nice people and shitty food. We landed in Lake Saranac, NY at a fancy schmancy hotel. Smallest room ever and a bathroom so small, I didn't fit in the shower!

We are currently sitting just north of Boston in New Hampshire - raining all day and night because of some hurricane / tropical storm. Leaving tomorrow though, regardless of the weather.

That's only funny because it tastes like the antifreeze in your car!

Got to my hotel around 5:00 PM = cold and tired. But beginning to dry out, so that;s good. Tomorrow the 600 mile haul to Sudbury to meet up with DesmoDog. The low speed limits in Canada are gonna make that fun. More later ....

Customs was busy so they didn't ask any questions and just let me ride right in ....

5:00 AM and I'm sitting in my room waiting for this mess to pass so I can leave. Todd returns home today while I continue into Canuckistan alone. He left about 30 minutes ago. More later....

Off to Minneapolis, Minnesota today. More pics as they happen...

My king sized bed was damned comfy!

Back at the room, Todd prepares his bed made of pillows on the floor. They are sold out and didn't have any other rooms available and mine had one bed. His ass is gonna hurt tomorrow!

We were kind of in the suburbs, but still - I thought Omaha was a great little town. Clean, neat streets with lots of people milling about....
-
So we walked about 200 feet to a Taproom for pizza and beers. Pizza was "Detroit style" which apparently means greasy and square in shape. Still, I ate most of mine as I was starving.
-
Went down to the hotel bar at 5:01 PM as it opens at 500 - not that I'm a raging alcoholic or anything. Bastards weren't open at 5:00 . And their Stella tap was dry....

Damned thing just won't die! I'd like to get another bike soon but this one just keeps going....
