After finishing my fishing at Rainbow Falls, I stopped at the Serendipity Restaurant in Rossport. I have eaten in this artsy place several times and the soup and dessert were excellent.
Now it was time to get to Thunder Bay and the ride was uneventful. I stopped briefly at a truckstop to write some, and then headed into town. I visited the OLG casino and had fun, since I played until I was tired of watching the slot wheels spin, and won 65 dollars. I usually set my limit at twenty dollars and as soon as I lose that I quit. This keeps me out of trouble, and though I know slot machines offer a poor return, I enjoy them. My next stop was to do some shopping (mainly more low sodium V-8 and drinking water) and then I visited the Montana Cookhouse (not at all like the Montana I know) for a soft dinner of pasta and mashed potatoes.
I woke at 4:10 to watch the beginning of Tiger Woods’ attempt to win another major, and after three holes, even Tiger couldn’t keep me up. When I woke later at around 6:30 Tiger was doing well and I watched him finish up with a 67. I hope he can be in it to the end, and even better would be for him to win.
I now had to get going for I wanted to take a bike ride at Marina Park in downtown Thunder Bay. The park was being renovated, so only a small portion was available to ride on, but I rode outside of the park and did perhaps 3 miles.
Now I had to get to Kenora, about 300 miles away. I wanted to get in 9 holes of golf along the way and get in early enough to eat at one of my favorites, the very fine Palace restaurant.
