The second day of my trip is mainly uneventful. I drive for most of the day, with a brief stopover in Sault Ste Marie for supplies, finally ending up at Lake Superior Provincial Park. The park is scenic, but is way too close to the highway. There are tractor-trailers continually zooming up and down Highway 17 all night, passing within 30 metres of my campsite. I finally was able to sleep through the noise though. No internet at that campground. I've noticed an odd correlation - when I don't have internet access, I go to bed earlier - strange, isn't it? I was asleep by 10:30.
You will notice I've added a map to the blog. What may not be so obvious is that I've also placed markers for my various stopping points. What I haven't figured out is how to indicate a route or to label the markers. Perhaps the Moore Technical Department (David) can figure that out and let me know.
No pictures that day, hence this boring text only entry.

Hey Tom,
Great to see your progress across the country. As for your query on using Google Maps, you should just be able to use the "Draw Line" feature in GM to denote you journey, you find it right next to the icon tool that you are using to highlight the stops. In fact you can use both, so the line to denote the route and icons for stops. You can also choose different icons or even customise them if you want.
I am assume you are just embedding the link into your blog and that you should have access to all the normal features in Google Maps.
None-the-less see you this week.
Aidan
