Day 30 Hurley, Wisconsin....staying ahead of the rain

10,983 km travelled on two wheels with Tubby behind us....
We are staying tonight in Hurley, which is located in Wisconsin next to the border with the Upper Peninsula, Michigan.
We covered a lot of miles today as we head home. We started to see the reds, oranges, yellows of the fall leaves in Minnesota and Wisconsin. The temperature is still high for us....low 80's F today. The landscape that we travelled through today is very similar to that of Ontario. We stopped at the statue of Minnesota's Paul Bunyon for a photo op.
As we were getting closer to our planned destination for tonight, we started to pay more attention to the skies as they darkened. We managed to keep ahead of the rain until we got to our accommodation for the night and then it rained for about thirty minutes. We look forward with anticipation to tomorrow's skies.
Regards to all,
Anne
