This blog is about my road-camping trip with my German shepherd dogs, Leben and Erde, from 19 Sept to 13 Oct 2012, which took us 3700 miles from DC to NY (and Beech Mountain), and then onto seven different provincial and national parks circling the Great Lakes. Just before Thunder Bay, Ontario, Leben became paralyzed, so we returned by way of Minnesota and then east to DC.

Day 15, oct 1

1124, defender is packed and we are moving on to killarney pp, 120 miles east. Pete seeger is ready to give me his famous rendition of This Land is Your Land, but i sing along substituting canadian venues for the US ones. That's how i start each journey, now using my wireless Beats.

Mattress was great last night. Poor leben slipped down between the 9" mattress and the back wall of the tent and could not get out. Tonight i'll give him the fronf so he has room to get up.

Glorious day for driving. Blue cloudless sky, 62 now.

Ed, on the road to killarney.

PS the red thing you see hanging from the ladder is a Voyageur scarf. Just got it here yesterday and i'll wear it for good luck, if not warmth as we travel farther north
