Day 66 - An Interesting Character

Today was more of yesterday. The weather and road conditions were great and I enjoyed the ride. Not far from the start I was stopped enjoying a drink and reading my book when a talkative young fellow chatted me up for a bit. He invited me back to his place for a few drink where we listened to absurdly loud death metal while yelling at one another in what was probably the most futile attempt at a conversation in history. His english was decent from what I could pick out between the music. He told me I could crash on the couch and avoid some bad weather heading our way but I decided I'd keep going and bid him farewell. Crazy diamond.

Bad weather never did hit and I had more stretches of dark road to enjoy after the sun went down. I made it to Rivière-du-Loup where the TCH cuts down south into New Brunswick (I'll still be going east tho). They have a walmart here so I camped in a busy area nearby. Tomorrow I can hopefully replace my stolen charger and pick up some supplies.
