Born To Be Wild

                                                                    So, I went on my first ever road trip on a motorcycle. I loved it, it was so much fun. We set off and it was really windy, but I feel really safe sat behind K. He’s a good rider. We made a pit stop at a biker bar at a small town for a drink. It was a hot day so it was nice to take the leathers off and cool down. It still surprises me how people look at you different in the leathers. When really it’s just clothes to keep you protected. I’m fairly certain I don’t really look intimidating in a leather jacket and I look more like Darth Vader with my helmet on. Anyway after some refreshments we take off again. Our next stop was at a place called St Louis. It has a historic bridge and some interesting historical information down by the river. I read all the information about the different crossings and places of historical importance and decided at some point in the future I need to go check this stuff out. Some pics of St Louis.     



    After leaving St Louis we continued all the way to our destination Waskesiu Lake in Prince Albert National Park. Such a beautiful place even with ice still being on the lake. K took the scenic route to get there in the hopes of seeing wildlife. But, we only saw deer and grouse. He did point out some hiking trails he likes and since I love hiking I’m hoping we can return sometime and walk them. My first view of the lake took my breath away it was so beautiful. It’s very hard to capture its beauty in a picture. The warm sun reflecting off the ice , the birds singing and the peaceful quietness. We stopped at a lakeside bar for more refreshments and sat out on the deck overlooking the lake. We then rode a little farther and unloaded our picnic supper which K then cooked. Ribeye steak, baby potatoes, salad and peas. I didn’t realize I was so hungry until I could smell the steak cooking. That I must admit was a spectacular steak and it was wonderful eating it on a picnic table by the lake. We had a walk around after and I took some pictures before we headed home.
