Day 11 - Ignace, ON to Dryden, ON

May 27, 2010
120 km

My stove was acting up this morning, I think it might just need to be cleaned but until then I will just eat food that doesn't need to be cooked. The bike ride was another depressing, boring, head wind kind of day but I listened to my iPod the whole time so it helped keep my mind off the odometer. At one point I had to stop as a moose on each side of the road was starring me down. Near the end of the ride I took a break in a small town called Wabigoon (I think thats what it was called) and they had a neat little cafe they do acoustic shows in. When I finally hit the sign for Dryden I was excited but it was another 10 km before I saw the first business. Once in town I called Todd McDonald, a friend of Jean-Paul's and got hooked up with a place to stay. Everyone in Dryden is really nice, the people at the library were very eager to help me in any way they could including letting me call home and Todd and his fiancee seem like great people and offered me the couch so I don't have to sleep with the cutest most excited husky puppy in the yard. I spent the night talking with a young man named Braden about the Dryden music scene and his music project Sunset City. Tomorrow is a long day to Kenora and if there is a head wind I am going to snap. A head wind is like a never ending hill with the person you hate most taunting and slapping you in the face. Oh yeah and Dryden is the proud home of Chris Pronger .... Go Flyers?
