Day 1, Windsor, ON to Wheatley Provincial Park, 50 (or so) miles.  From now on "PP" means Provincial Park, and "CG" means Campground.

We started out (very late) on the Chrysler Canada Greenway:
 
 
where Brian's cousin dropped us off., It is crushed limestone (not paved), but which was not a bad path usually.  We stopped at MJ's Pizza in Wheatley when we finally arrived in town, and had a late dinner, after riding in the dark for 45 minutes or more.  The trip to the park was short after that, and we had a reservation so were in and set up quickly.

Posting will be more difficult for the remainder of the trip as my phone was "lifted" last night. I am hoping that someone will restore my faith in the goodness of all people and I'll get a call that someone turned it in at the campground, but not holding my breath. Great weather so far! Late night last night, as brian lost one of his panniers and we spent 45 minutes and more than a few miles looking for it (found it), after getting a really late start out of Windsor. Otherwise the machines and operators worked well and we have the first day under our belts.  Day 2 will be a long day at 80+ miles, but we will start on time so it should not be nearly as late of an arrival.
