Would that be somewhere around Geraldton or Long Lac?  I used to work in 
many towns up north, as far as Armstrong.  It used to take me about 14 
hours to drive from Geralton to Oakville. ~800 miles.  I'd leave 
Geraldton around 6  or 6:30 AM and stop for gas & lunch at Iroquois 
Falls and dinner at North Bay, getting to Oakville around 8 or 9.  I 
could make that trip on 2 fllls of the 13 gallon tank in my '72 Hornet

BTW, back in those days, there was  one traffic light, when passing 
through Kapuskasing.  If it was green when I went through, my wheels 
didn't stop rolling from Geralton, until Iroquois Falls.

It also amazes me when people refer to Barrie or Orillia as "Northern 
Ontario".

BTW, Armstrong is up past the north west corner of Lake Nipigon, about 
250 Km north of Thunder Bay.  It's way up past Steeles!  ;-)

I know the feeling, working at a job well below what I'm capable of, 
because of lack of suitable positions in the communications and IT 
industries.
