We are on the road. We're sad to be leaving family and friends but looking forward to spending time with our son Adam, his wife Leah, and our grandson David.
Day one was pretty uneventful. It did not rain so that was a blessing :) We planned on stopping at Sudbury, preferably at a Wal Mart but couldn't find it so we continued down the road to Nairn Centre which sports a Esso Truck Stop. We're about 270 km. from Sault Ste. Marie where we hope to cross over to the US for the main portion of our trip.
I don't know if it's our big rig or not but I do think that there are many parts of the Trans Canada Hwy. 17 that are very rough, it hasn't been twinned, and it doesn't reflect very well on what is supposed to be the main highway through Canada. New Brunswick and Nova Scotia have made major strides on their highways, with help from the Government of Canada. I think it's time for Ontario to jump on board as well.
