Campbellford Fueling

Today we bought fuel for the first time in Canada. We took 656 liters at $.899 per liter Canadian. If my conversion is right that is 173.3 gallons at $2.959 a gallon U.S. using a $1.15 conversion on the dollar. We have travelled 569 miles since we last fueled in St. Ignace, MI. Because of all the nights at lock walls we also ran the generator almost 20 hours. Allowing 13.3 gallons for the generator, 569 miles on 160 gallons is over 3.5 miles per gallon. This reflects our slower speeds and is the type of mileage I was hoping for.
