I left home at 7:30 in the morning to drive 7.5 hours to Grand Marais.  The drive was completely uneventful.  Along the way I saw four have hikers.  The views on Minnesota Highway 61 were amazing — when it was save to look.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I arrived at 3:45 p.m. and set up camp in a matter of minutes.  I’m camping in the Municipal campsite.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
With that done, I needed to find a couple of places.  The first was the Senior Center.  That is where I’ll catch the bus tomorrow.  The second place is Harriet Quarles office.  That is where I’ll park the car tomorrow.  I found both places.  I was looking for other hikers in town, but I didn’t find any.<\/div>\n

Now that I know we’re everything is, I could drive my car up to Harriet’s and save myself some time tomorrow.  Sitting here I’ve counted three chipmunks.  I think I’ll keep my food in the car.<\/div>\n
