Nous avons eu des petites 'rolling hills' toute la journée. Environ 5 km avant Marcell, nous avons vu deux cyclistes qui venaient dans notre direction. Nous ne pensions pas que ce serait nos amis, Molly et Rich, parce qu'on devait les rencontrer à Marcell. Nous les avons rencontrés juste à temps pour déguster une crème glacée ensemble 2 km plus loin. Nous restons à leur cabine (camp) pour 2 soirs.
Quelle belle journée. Nous avons commencé avec un déli et plein de nourriture pour le diner. Puis nous avons fait une grande tournée en bateau sur le lac. Nous avons vu plein de belles résidences et des 'resorts'. Plus tard nous avons eu un autre superbe repas - shish kabobs -, avec salade césar, salade de fruits et riz. Encore beaucoup de nourriture. Après avoir resté à un motel sans services autour, pas de restaurants et magasins, ceci était parfait.
Nous avons aussi rencontré leur plus jeune fils, Erik et sa fiancée, Katie, qui vont se marier l'an prochain, le 15 août...journée des Acadiens. Ce sera facile de se souvenir de cette date. C'est un beau jeune couple, très gentils, qui ont bien des choses en commun. Nous leur souhaitons une belle vie ensemble et une belle famille avec plusieurs enfants.
Encore ce soir, nous utilisons le Personal Hotspot du cellulaire pour faire le blog, dons les photos seront ajoutés dans quelques jours quand nous aurons du Wi-Fi.

We had a very small breakfast at the motel this morning, and after 12 km of riding we were in Northome. We saw a sign by a senior citizen center saying that they were having a pancake breakfast starting at 7h AM. It was 6:50h, but were able to get in right away. Everybody was excited by our adventure. They even took a picture of us. It was the men cooking and the meal was perfect.
We had small rolling hills all day. About 5 km before Marcell, we saw 2 cyclists coming by us. We were not thinking that it could have been our friends, Molly and Rich, because we were supposed to meet them in Marcell. We met them just in time to go for an ice cream 2 km later. We are staying at their camp for 2 nights.
What a day it has been. They started out with a nice deli lunch with lots to eat. Then we went for a long boat ride on the lake and saw lots of resorts and nice places. Later on, we got a very nice supper. We had shish-kabobs, with a cesar salad, a fruit salad and rice. Lots and lots to eat. After staying in a motel with no services around last night, this was just a perfect night.
We also got to meet their youngest son, Erik and his fiance, Kathie, whom are getting married next year on August 15th...Acadian Day. It will be hard to forget this date. They are a very nice young couple, who have a lot in common. We wish them a very nice life with lots of kids.
