Up at 8:00 walk Mindy then b-fast at Tim Hortons $3.90 they don't give free refills but made an exception this time. I think i'll go back to McDonald's. While having b-fast I heard the forcast for the UP was for blizzard, so naturally I had to get there asap. I took 75 all the way to the end. Sault Ste Marie. Along the way I crossed the Macinaw suspension bridge the longest of it's type in the northern hemisphere. I arrived at Sault Ste Marie about 17:00 when I got Mindy rigged up to walk I heard a lot of comotion and determied that the town was in the semi finals of the outhouse races. So I had to watch that. Later Mindy and I walked down to the waterfront to see what was there. There was a Laker there called Valley Camp that is a museum but I don't think it was open. After we got back to the camper I stopped at a comfort inn and asked to use the pool the manager said ok. I used the hot tub and pool and the sauna then took a shower. The bad news? The shower was cold I mean really cold! Took on 33 gal fuel $97.22 11.7 mpg Then back to Walmart for the night.
