Off to Coteau-du-lac, Quebec

       We had a pleasant and relaxed morning with Jane and took the dogs back to the Commons for some exercise before leaving, and then headed off for our 386 mile trip to the western edge of Montreal.  We drove through Toronto just after rush hour, and had no problem getting through.  We primarily drove on Canada 401 most of the day, and found that they have closed EVERY reststop from the Port Huron border through to Montreal--"reconstruction for our traveling convenience!"  The strange thing is that at each closed reststop, they give you the distance to the next one but fail to say it is also closed!
          It was a pretty boring ride overall, and we were glad to have our audible book on tape entertaining us.  We did get several quick views of the St. Lawrence Seaway, which was nice--surprisingly wider than Jim had imagined.
        We arrived at the campground around 5:30, and were glad to be done for the night!  It is actually hard to believe that this is our last night on the road, and that we'll be home in Southport tomorrow!
