Day 7. I did not get to depart Minot until early afternoon, which is just as well. It rained this morning, and it was raining and 59 degrees when I left. As I traveled farther north the rain lessened and it warmed slightly. It continued to rain until just before I stopped for the night, in Estevan, Saskatchewan. Now that I am here the skies have begun to clear and it has warm to the mid 60's. Because of the rain I did not make photos today, but I will make a special effort to make photos tomorrow and add those to the blog. I am not expecting any spectacular photo opportunities until I get north of Dawson Creek. I will be staying overnight in Dawson Creek Wednesday night. The Al-Can highway begins (or ends, depending upon your perspective...but for me, on this trip, it begins.) at Dawson Creek, British Columbia.
All is going well, and I am happy to be back on the bike and making progress along my planned route of travel.
I am thankful for quality rain gear to keep me dry and comfortable while riding during these summer rains. I know the people of North Dakota and Saskatchewan are thankful for the moisture too.
