On the way to Ironwood, Michigan

Yes!  The sun came out and it was HOT!  We got to Ashland for lunch at Maslowski Beach where there was an amazing view across Lake Superior, shade, a breeze and a picnic table.  Ashland seemed a very cute town, very linked to the outdoors.  There was an old hotel there so people have been coming to this part of Wisconsin for a long time.  Murals have been painted on the walls downtown.  Helen and I stopped and bought inner tubes for Ward at a very nice bike store.  He keeps blowing tires!  Found our riders again shortly afterwards and gave them more water and sustenance.  The sun is high and it is such a relief from the cold.  Helen unzipped her long pants and took off a couple of layers!  Arrived into Ironwood and the Comfort Inn here.  Nice lodgings.  Skyped with Lori and saw Mila in action.  Great dinner at Don and GG's Restaurant.  Whitefish, Cajun style and a salad without added cheese!  Feels good.  Time for early bed again.  Tomorrow we will be on Ontario time.  We are making progress.
