7/30 Bemidji MN to Neebing ON

These next posts to the end of the trip will be shorter than most of the previous posts. The days were longer, I took fewer notes, and we were moving through more familiar territory. So, you get just the highlights so we can remember where we were. Bemidji into Duluth in the morning. We stopped at the HD dealership and dropped our oil in the parking lot (into drip pans of course!) and did the 5000 mile service. We gathered a crowd with the three Alaskan bikes. After the service we went down town Aerostich. This is a company that makes and markets high-tech riding apparel and gear. Unfortunately, their catalog is much more user friendly than their retail outlet which is really just an afterthought corner in there manufacturing and warehousing space. After lunch we moved north along Lake Superior and stopped at Gooseberry Falls State Park viewing incredible stone work by the CCC, and Split Rock Lighthouse State Park. The latter is a famous and picturesque lighthouse that Eric has on his list of places to visit. He'll provide more detail. We ended up in Neebing just over the border in Ontario late that night after having perhaps our only and closest call with a deer at dusk in Minnesota.
