Bay L'Argent to Jack's Pond! Aug 23/14

The gnome is put into service for the final days of our bicycle tour to complete the 270kms to St John's.

My curiosity of things I happen apon along the side of the road has me wondering what the story is behind a small tin containing a small amount of moldy weed and associated paraphernalia likely tossed from a passing vehicle. Maybe the person decided to quit like someone tossing out their full pack of cigarettes. But we know the more likely story don't we.

Todays stop was to be Swift Current. Yes, New Foundland has one, too. This Swift Current had no grocery/general store to feed a hungry cyclist so onward we went. Food was found for this evening and the next day in a town called Goobies. Basically it's just a gas bar with a restaurant and a small store at the junction of highway 210 and the TCH. Turning the corner onto the TCH gave us a nice tailwind to push us the 25kms to the campground at Jack's Pond.
