I remember those communities and especially Marathon quite well. I spent the night in a really scuzzy hotel there, when I was traveling from Winnipeg, Manitoba to Cambridge, Ontario by motorcycle at the beginning of May. I had to stop, the area was hit by a freak snowstorm and the highway had 1/2 a foot of snow. With a street motorcycle this was not good! This was a few decades ago.

was it the travelodge...only hotel i saw on that #1 highway or 17 i think was the travelodge...yes it was kinda scuzzy but you get those from tim to time!

I doubt very much that the old hotel I stayed in is around any longer. The hotel I stayed at only had one bathroom shared for all the rooms on that floor. The Travelodge looks much too modern. The hotel I stayed at was located off the highway right in town.

one i stayed at was right on the highway...

A swell set of real-world and FS pix Darren. :cool::cool::) Wawa is what I called "water" when I was just learning to talk. I would have been surprised if mom would have given me a goose instead - really surprised, wooohoo. :D:D
