Lake Superior is a big one...so is Lake Huron

It took a full day of driving to get around the north shore of Lake Superior from Thunder Bay to Sault Ste. Marie. The view out the windshield was mostly water with no end in sight or forests with no end in sight. This was Day 59 of our travels and endless views of water and forests were making us feel a bit weary. It took another day to drive around Lake Huron and the Georgian Bay from Sault Ste. Marie to Sudbury and then past Lake Ontario to Toronto and Hamilton. We had seen a Greyhound Bus pulling a cargo trailer make its delivery of passengers and parcels in Jasper Town Site back in the Canadian Rockies. We regretted that we didn't have a camera at hand to capture the moment. While we were still in the rural part of Ontario, we spotted another one. What a good use of the well-known "people mover" to get packages back into the boonies. We also got a big kick out of the moving van the passed us with the last of the belongings lashed to the back. Guess it just couldn't be squeezed inside!
