A Diary from the Road.
Here are some high points from the travels of the Cup:
ORONO, ONTARIO-- About an hour north of Toronto. Bryan Bickell-- a lifejacket strapped on the Cup as it went fishing.
ROSEAU, MINNESOTA-- Less than ten miles from Canada, Dustin Byfuglien-- Cup and people went four-wheeling to the Canadian border.
SURREY, BRITISH COLUMBIA-- Second-largest city in province. Colin Fraser-- Serenaded by bagpipes and escorted by Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Was Dudly Doo-Right there?
SEA BRIGHT, NJ-- Mike Haviland-- Along with 60 close friends took Cip to Sea Bright Beach on the Jersey Shore where it was mobbed by beachgoers.
TRENCIN and NOVA DUBNICA, SLOVAKIA-- Marian Hossa (from Trencin) and Tomas Kopeckey (from Nova Dubnica)-- Hossa ate pirogi and Kopecky had Slovakian soup out of the Cup. They took it to medieval Trencin Castle.

RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

Thanks for sharing stories about where Stanley has been. Wish you would post some photos. The Wife is a hockey fanatic and we went to Toronto just so she could visit the Hockey Hall of Fame. She even tried to squeeze Stanley in the trunk of the T-bird - haa haa
Now that we completed Route 66, Lincoln Highway is our next adventure. Your blog sure provides helpful traveling tips.
Keep up the good work.
Regards,
T-bird (Stang) on Route 66
I tried to go to the article on the Tribune site, but couldn't find it. I'm sure it must be there somewhere.
Last year this time, I couldn't have cared less about hockey, but got into it during the Blackhawks run for the Cup.
Thanks for the compliments.
If you like 66, you'll really enjoy the Lincoln.
