Kapuskasing, ON

We're so far north in Canada that a couple of hours before we arrived here in Kapuskasing we passed a sign that the rivers were now running north and emtying into the artic circle and then we passed the 49th paralell!

We started out the day (Monday) at 50F in New Liskeard this morning and when we got here it was 37 and it had warmed up from their morning low!

The town has weird curving streets and seems rather out of the 50's - sort of a time warp with Wal-mart and KFC added in.

The motel has been updated and is very nice, flat screen tv, glass bowl sink and very modern bathroom.

You know you're in the NORTH when the local tv bulletin board has an announcement for the Fauquier Trappers Council Meeting on the 2nd Wednesday of the month. Lot's of meat pie sales and dinners also
.
Thanks to the staff at the Lambert Clinic in Kapuskasing for fixing Rita's tooth that cracked on Sunday.

Everyone here calls the town Kap.
