owen sound


let's see. St. Patricks day. mom and I went to Regina, we stayed at a HI hostel downtown and went to see the movie `Breakfast on Pluto` starring my favorite actor Cillian Murphy as a transvestite. He makes an ok woman which is a little scary. The next day we did a tour of the legislative buildings. then we set off for Winnipeg. I saw a wolf on the side of the highway. very cool. In Winnipeg we went to the Museum. That was about it. Then to Ontario. We ended up in Kenora and stayed at the Days Inn which hosts Kenoras only waterslide. It was really fast and fun. I laughed so hard at mom when she came barrelling out of there and didn`t know which way was up from down. Then we stayed in Thunderbay. The next day I got her to the airport and we rearranged my stuff in the car so that my bike is inside now. It`s so much better then having my bike on the crappy bike rack always threatening to blow away. I drove on towards Sault St. Marie but only made it to Wawa before deciding to stop and veg at a motel. Interesting town there was a curling competition going on. Somewhere in Ontario I saw something run across the road so I slowed down to inspect. It was a bobcat! I love seeing animals in the wild...so cool. Then I drove to Sudbury, stopped at the library to use internet and call Angela to see if I could stay at her brothers house. Turns out he lives north of Sudbury, wasn`t home and I didnt feel like waiting and I`d have to leave the next morning at 6 when he goes to work. so decided to drive more. stayed at a crummy motel and vegged again. this morning I drove to Owen sound to stay with my friend Jordan. Tonight we`re going to freak ourselve out and see `the hills have eyes` Tomorrow we`ll see about skiing at Blue Mountain. i should be in Ottawa Monday night.
