Day 33: Tillsonburg to St. Thomas, ON

As we continue to make our way toward a much-needed hotel stay in St. Thomas (rest, get clean, use the wifi, etc), I muse aloud about the meaning of gorp and why I switched pronouns — using “we” in these vlogs instead of “I”.

We are now a bit more than halfway through the Canadian leg of this journey. We should be at the St Clair River in four days or so. There are no bridges that you’re allowed to walk across, so the plan is to take the ferry to Algonac, Michigan. But that’s at least four days away; in the meantime, let’s enjoy this tiny fraction of all that Ontario has to offer.

      Good question. I reckon there are a few of us, but it’s a big world, and we’re pretty spread out.

      ‘Course, everybody else walks first, then writes a book about it. So in a sense, you could say I’m walking backward …
