"The road hugs the edge of the Lake Superior pretty closely, so you’re never too far from that gorgeous view. Pull over in Duluth for a snack at Scenic Cafe, which grows some of its own herbs and veggies, then continue on toward the pink (yes) shores of Iona’s Beach. You might never want to stop driving along this route, but unless you have your passport you’ll have no choice after about two hours, when you hit the Canadian border. Turn off at Grand Marais, where some pizza from Sven & Ole’s will cure anything that ails you."
