Our hosts at the Big Axe Brewery B&B made us a very nice breakfast at 7am. As we were eating it in the sun room, I could see the St-John River just out the window and thought of Gordon Lightfoot's song Long River. We have been following this river from the height of land between Riviere du Loup and Edmundston all the way to St-John. We rode on the Trans-Canada Highway past Fredericton and then turned south on Rte 7. There were lots of hills and a headwind after we turned south. If you think that I only listen to Gordon Lightfoot, you would be mistaken. It's just that he has written so many songs about Canada and the way that I see this beautiful country.
Our distance today was about 162 km. We started just after 8 this morni and rode until after 6 pm with time out for a nice turkey dinner at the Blue Canoe near Fredericton. So we were getting tired by the time we arrived in St-John. Mitch, if your Dad is reading this to you, ask him to explain what happened to the Boston Bruins in game 7.😈😅😀😢
