Chromeo Day 3, Drive to Regina
The plan to leave at noon wasn't too far off today. We left at 1pm for the 14 hr drive. It was going well for a while. We stopped for lunch in Kekabee Falls (I think) where we ate in a diner that hadn't been painted since the 70's. The walls were a faded yellow, the ceiling brown and the carpet was some kind of red and yellow psychedelic mess. Attached to the diner, there was some sort of legion hall. The walls were covered in taxidermied animals and all the furniture was undoubtedly vintage 70s. The lights were straight out of a long forgotten disco bar in Thunder Bay, guaranteed. But, all that said, the food was actually decent.
We got back on the road and things were going well. Then we got the speeding ticket. I wasn't driving, thankfully. There was no way were going as fast as he said we were. Our van and trailer couldn't even handle it. But what are you gonna do...? We had to take it and proceed, albeit a little more paranoid. And so we drove. And drove. And drove... We hit some delays, lots of construction. When it was all said and done, we actually got in to Regina at a decent time. Just have a handful of hours to sleep, then back at it again.
