Day 41--on The Bruce

Today, I'm stopping briefly in Wiarton, Ontario, which is located on the South Bruce Penninsula. Wharton is the home of Wiarton Willie, a white groundhog. He's the town mascot and lives outside the library. I hope to make it another 30 miles to Owen Sound.

Rode the Chi-Cheemaun Ferry yesterday (see below) from South Baymouth to Tobemory. I've spent two days on two of the most beautiful landmasses of the trip. Yesterday was Manitoulin Island and today is Bruce Penninsula. Both are absolutely amazing.

Rode 160 miles from Sault Ste Marie to Espanola on July 16 and 17.
70 miles from Espanola to South Baymouth yesterday.
50 miles so far today.

The weather is okay. Have had headwinds from the south since leaving Espanola.
