Day 20: Rest Day in Fort Frances

Yesterday was truly a blessing in disguise as the weather is absolutely awful today and looks like it will flood any moment. The power has been going out sporadically and there's a downed power line and Bill constantly has to go outside to make sure everything is not submerged. Ironically the lake in front is called Rainy Lake and just down the road is a spot called Windy Point. It's too miserable to even go outside and I'm so so thankful and lucky that I have a roof over my head. I would not have wanted to ride to Fort Francis in this! It's sort of strange to finally take a breather and not to be on the go after 19 days on the road, but really relaxing to be able to read, watch TV (perfect timing that the World Cup kicks off today!), surf the Internet and I guess do what normal people do everyday. The rainfall warning ends tonight and it's suppose to be sunny tomorrow so fingers crossed!
