GPS
I got a GPS as an early Birthday present.  Man, those things are fun.  All our erratic driving is now recorded.  I can see all the places where I got lost.  We call our unit 'Eddie' (as in Eddie the shipboard computer, from the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy fame; famous for the line: "I can compute your personality problems to 11 decimal places!").  Our Eddie's suggestions on how to get somewhere can be just as annoying as his namesake ("Make a U-Turn in 1.7 km").

Arrived in Saskatoon
We arrived safely in Saskatoon last night at 02:30 Ottawa time (00:30 local).  The trip was fine and easy.  The Google guesstimate of 35 hours was almost bang on.  First night just outside of Kirkland Lake, second night just before Dryden.  Now in a hotel, because we couldn't find a camp site coming into Saskatoon.
