Day 39: Warroad to Stratton (a berry good day!)

He slept in til seven
Boy was that heaven
Then had breakfast in bed
And was very well fed
Strawberries and scrambled
eggs
"Tomorrow again?" he begged
Fathers day was real good
Camping at lake of the woods!
The wind was hard from the east
Man what a beast!
But the road was pretty boring
Hard to keep from snoring
In Baudette we stopped to eat
Fruit smoothies and cinnamon treats
Talley hoo
Off to Ontario!





Where the wind was still from the east
And was still a terrible beast
And the road was still flat and straight
Will this always be our fate?
Then eagle eyed Leah
Said she needed to pee..ah
Then disappeared in the grass
And came back with a stash
A big bag full of wild strawberrios






Glad we are to be in Ontario
At night we were beat
Slept soundly on peat
In the field of our mennonite friend
Our day came to an end
