We made it out of Ontario

Another exciting day for the Hicks/Manship road trip.
We have met the real Thelma and Louise - 2 Mennonite women in a very large truck.
We first met them just "South of Wawa" last night, met them several times during today and last encountered them as they were pulled over by a police officer. We pondered driving back to see if the police officer was locked in the boot of his own car.
Other notable moments of today:
Deanna inhaled a tic tac, it was not pleasant and apparently she could smell "orange"  for quite some time after (I suggested only snorting powder in future)
Deanna's ability to answer important directional questions while apparently asleep and drooling.
Animals seen today:
2 Moose - not as scary as yesterday as it was daytime and they didn't loom so much
1 rabbit
1 heron
2 deer
1 Bald Eagle (as in "whats that? It's a bloody bald eagle!")
Favourite sign:
"Ban criminals not Guns"

Tomorrow is an exciting day of flatness - we fully expect to take it in turns at watching movies all trip.
Moose Jaw here we come.
