Finally gone! Roadie: Ottawa - Sault Ste Marie - Michigan

Working on the Ottawa sucks!
Luck at this posh place we call home.
People are so closed minded here!

I mean really!
Look at those sunsets. Bah!

Blue skies? Not needed!

And those lame warm water waves?

I mean, how are you supposed to paddle like this.

And then having to not only spend you worktime...

but also your sparetime here. Eww!


So...

...Matt Hardy and myself decided to screw all that.
Pack a car and run.

But then we came across some ugly whitewater.
The Dumoine.
And gave in to paddle it.

No, we didn't smile! It was a favour to the river!
I tripped.

We had to camp out.

Only to come across boring Canadian Wilderness.

And then it rained.
I gotta admit, the following swim was fun though.

I blame these leaves.

Matt decided it looked awesome and followed.
Aux Sable.

OMG

It rained some more!
Matt thought it'd be a great idea to make sandwiches and go boating again!
Ridiculous.

And Tiia concurred. So I had to go again.
Tiia, Achigan.

Somehow they convinced even more people to do the same.
Connor.

Well, I thought that leaving the country would maybe help.
Tahquamenon Falls, Michigan.

And I gotta say...
after looking at all this high water...

IT DID!!!

Thanks a lot to Tiia Koskela and Matt Hardy for the pictures and motivation to go boating.

Oh, and OWL Rafting for four amazing summers, I'm gonna miss those carefree times!

Counting down. Grand Canyon in a month from now.

Peace,
Sven
