In A Van Down By The River

  • currently John and I are in a parking lot of a Holiday Inn in Dryden, stealing their internet and using their camper plugs to charge batteries
  • we slept in the car last night outside of Wawa. It was um, cold. We slept about 3 hours before we gave up because we were too cold. We've been on the road ever since
  • I think Lake Superior is creepy, really creepy
  • maybe we came up 'that road' (I can't even remember what we've been on) that snakes along Lac Superior, maybe we did it laaaaaate at night. maybe there was a lot of warning for moose. maybe we stopped at the scene of a very, very recent accident - like we were the second car on the scene - there was a dead moose, a totaled car, man. John was the one to get out of the car (he was driving), a middle aged couple were fairly banged up (nothing too serious) and another driver had things under control
  • you want to bet we took it slo-ow after that, as the EMS vehicles passed us to the other
  • we saw two more live moose, and a couple of bats
  • freaking Lake Superior
  • from The Soo to here we've seen over 70 watch for moose signs
