4. Dark dried bloodstains from the endless roadkill. (daily)
5. Oncoming vehicles seeing us and still attempting to pass a slower vehicle- 3 times and counting (one a semi). (Ontario update- we have lost count....)
6. Garbage in ditches. endless. all types.
7. Getting the finger or getting honked at just for being on the road. The greeting is returned where possible (~every 1-2 weeks)
