Watkins Acerage
We popped into the Pattison Winnipeg office this morning for some hello/goodbyes. Derek was just ringing the gong because of a 6 figure contract he signed this morning! WTG DJ!
It was great actually meeting the creative team, and putting faces to names. I'm sure they are looking forward to me being gone for a year. No more subject lines with: Sorry! Two day turn around please!
After the visit, we went back to the Watkins acreage to saddle up. Thanks, Brian and Tan for the hospitality- you have a beautiful place there.
Stopped for gas on the way out of town- thanks Mike and Cindy for the gas card. Not necessary, but much appreciated!The road started getting much more interesting just after we passed the center point for Canada.
Rode pretty much straight to Kenora, where we stopped for lunch and a peek at the Lake of the Woods. We stopped at the first Timmy's we saw, but we had to laugh as we drove down the road to see the main business section in Kenora, beautiful sopt, overlooking the lake with lots of flowers, interesting stores and restaurants! Lesson Learned!
First weird sight on the road, was a guy pushing a full shopping cart in the middle of nowhere...
Right now, we are about 400 or so KM from Thunder Bay at a beautiful campsite, called Aaron. (just outside of Dryden) Very quiet, and we are right on a lake. We will probably stop tomorrow in Thunder Bay, as it looks like I may need new tires. The last ones, I have had on since Whitehorse, so they are looking a tad worn.
Nighty Night to all!
