Adventure - Buffalo Pound Campground near Moose Jaw

It’s all blurring together on me. Long days driving.

Saturday I left Lakeview Campground a little north of Deep River. That day I made it all the way to the Sault Ste Marie KOA campground checking in around 730 pm. I did 580 km that day. I finished Abraham Verghese’s brilliant audio book, Covenant of Water. What characters and what a plot covering several generations of families in Kerala, India where Laura and I stayed a few years ago. I started listening to Jordan Peterson’s “We who wrestle with God’.

Sunday I did a long day. I drove from Sault Ste. Marie to Ignace , 980 km. I boon docked at the scenic look out there. I’d been looking for a campground but didn’t find one. The sun was red with all the smoke from campfires in the air. We had chickens sandwiches and ice cream. I set up the Honda generator and Starlink so I could watch Rookie. Laura I woke at 5 am and carried on today. I thought I was tired bu the smoke in the air was thick between Kenora and Winnipeg./. Visibility was affected≥. Past Winnipeg it improved. Lots of the forest fires have originated around reserves.

Ignace to Moose Jaw 1,112 km.

Jordan Peterson’s book discusses the biblical stories with the idea that there is a unity and hierarchy that are essential Otherwise the fringe and the fringe beyond try to be the centre and society fails. He’s moving through Adam and Eve and Cain and Able. It’s pedantic but he includes discussion of the 5 personality traits and the traits of psychopaths. So there’s this religious scientific overlap. I may have to find a novel to continue as it’s fascinating but I’m needing something more exciting later in the day. I have to pull over several times for naps in addition for gas stops and A&W stops.

I really don’t have anything more to say except I like this Buffalo Pound Campground. There’s a lake. I imagine that one day I’ll have time to relax and will relax. I’m looking forward to having the boat running again. I don’t have life jackets with me either.

I’m glad to be settled in . I’ll make some more sandwiches and watch more Rookie.I got the espresso maker out for the morning.

I really don’t have much to say but would like to load up the pictures.
