Unexpected layover in Minnesota June 23 - ?

Dropped off the rig for a simple seal replacement on the rear wheel since piper had noticed some oil leakage.

In the meantime we had a nice walk to see - what? - another large statue?  This 26' tall Smokey the Bear had been the largest Smokey statue, but since 2021 there's a carving that's bigger in SD.

Found a steep little path down to the Rainy River with Canada behind us.

Then we got the call.  It's not just a seal we need, the shaft assembly for the axle has hairline cracks going through that circle part.

So now we're at a hotel til at least Tuesday.  Luckily the dealer had a loaner car, and we biked our ebikes to the hotel too.

Hmmm, things to do in International Falls.  Yesterday (6/24) we went to the theatre (first time together since covid) and saw Stephen King's The Boogeyman.  Pretty scary!
