April 6th – Scranton, Pennsylvania

Apr 8th, 2018 by rallyadmin

We’re up and gone by 7:30. Stop for fuel and then stop at a Timmy’s for breakfast. We’re on the way home. The adventure is over. (We hope.)

The Rabbit 2.0 crew are headed for the airport in Quebec City so than Mark F can fly home to Toronto. Marc G is headed back to Sherbrooke and then down into the States via I-91 in Vermont. I’m headed onto Montreal to enter the States and head south via Canada 15 and I-87, the Northway. Time for goodbyes.

It’s been great traveling with M,M, Jeremiah and Rabbit 2.0. Rabbit 2.0 broke through the ice on Happy Valley/Goose Bay’s only ice road. Big Red Truck took a three day break in Happy Valley/Goose Bay. But, all in all, a pretty good adventure. The winter trek across the Trans Labrador Highway has been a success.

The weather is great. The temps have warmed up. There’s not much traffic. Get to Montreal. Cross the river. Head west and then take a left to the south and head for the US border.

No dramas at Customs and onto I-87. Around Plattsburgh and almost all the way to Albany, there’s light snow and wind. Still another early spring cold front is coming through. There’s not much accumulation on the road other than the occasional slush piles in the passing land. By the time I get on the Thruway in Albany, the roads are dry and the sun is poking through the clouds. It remains this way all the way on to I-84/81 into Pennsylvania.

After the better part of 700 miles, I stop in Scranton. That leaves just over 600 miles to do tomorrow. It’s just getting dark. The hotel has rooms. Get a pizza from the restaurant next door and call it a day. I’ll be home tomorrow.
