I love reading about where you have been, where you are and where you plan to go next. You are doing things that I dream to do but recognize that I am too old to do much more than read of you travels. Keep traveling and keep us posted.

4 years agoGood Morning Jeanna and Kerry, I drove home to Little Falls in the wind you bucked all day and thought of you. Heading south on 71 I met the solo rider from the Twin Cities area (not recalling his name just now) coming north - presumably to International Falls. If I may, I can recommend a few dining places while in Borderland. The Coffee Landing Cafe on main street International Falls and The Cantilever and Rainy Lake Grill in Ranier a few miles east of International Falls. If the Koochiching Co. Historical Society Museum is open, you might check out the collection of model Rainy Lake wooden boats my father (Buck Johnson) built in the later years of his life. Wishing you safe travels and tailwinds.
4 years agolooks like another great day.

There is a long history of confusion about the rivers in this area. The little piece of Minnesota that sticks up into Canada (the Northwest Angle) is the result of such confusion. The border between the US and Canada was supposed to have run from the Lake of the Woods west to the Mississippi River. Oops, only later did the realize that the source of the Mississippi is South of the Lake of the Woods, and you can't get to the Mississippi by going West from the Lake of the Woods.
4 years agoAfter they realized their mistake the did a re-do and ended up with the 49th parallel border, but kept the part of the original agreement that said the Lake of the Woods was part of the US.
Speaking of borders, are you allowed to cross the Rainy River, or is that off limits because of the Corona virus?
