we're taking the northern route: Niagara Falls, Ontario Ferry across the mouth of Georgian Bay, re-enter the US at Sault Ste Marie, drive along the Upper Peninsula ... my wife's great-grandparents settled in north-central Minnesota after immigrating from Norway, so she wants to scope out a couple small towns associated with her mom's family history ... then across North Dakota (the only state I haven't yet visited) and Montana, a couple nights in the Glacier Park area, finally home via Going-to-the-Sun Highway and North Cascades Highway
current plan is to meet
davetravels for lunch in Pittsburgh the first day, which I guess also qualifies as "interesting"
