But I just call it the warmest winter. Man in front of the general store in Sioux Narrows on a chilly day at the end of JunePine needles and creosote. The smell hit me shortly after arriving to Ontario while bicycling south on Highway 71 between Kenora and Fort Frances. A brisk morning wind rushed over the treetops and into my face a wind http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/Canada/Ontario/Timmins/blog-626061.html So two weeks have past because we are lazy but it coincidently means that we have more to talk about. Here goes...So during our last two weeks in Toronto we managed to cram in quite a few thingsOne of the days we woke up early to see a live radio performance in Toronto's main square. We were having breakfast in the centre of Toronto being serenaded three rows away from Dallas Green of Cit http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/Canada/Ontario/Timmins/blog-537431.html Day 20. 7117KmI knew I had a lot of ground to cover and had no idea what the road was going to be like. The map indicated it was paved but being so remote was it just a logging road that had the crap beat out of it Once underway there is no option but to continue or turn around. This is the only road up here.I got propane in Roberval and topped up on diesel in SaintFelicien. I had half a tank wh http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/Canada/Ontario/Timmins/blog-410638.html Well we only went to Toronto over the summer. Nothing to blog about there besides it was summer holidays so the kids did not have to keep up with their reading and writing.We will be going to Florida in March so we will probably start this up again at that time. http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/Canada/Ontario/Timmins/blog-321999.html Well we are back home now. We did not get a chance to write about Naples and the Amalfi Coast before we left but we will try to post a bit tomorrow or Sunday. See everyone soon. http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/Canada/Ontario/Timmins/blog-274566.html Getting closer now. Got most of the stuff out that I want to pack. It is tough trying to keep all 4 of us in 2 suitcases and 1 wardrobe without going over the 50lb limit per bag. I have never travelled where I did not have access to a washing machine to do a load in the middle of the trip either. This should be interesting. Hopefully the boys don't get too dirty everyday.By the way the Timmi http://www.travelblog.org/North-America/Canada/Ontario/Timmins/blog-267766.html
