Across The Provinces

Sorry we can't do pictures at this time.


We headed easterly on TransCanada 1 --- cold and drizzy a lot.
Had the intake preheater repaired at Medicine Hat, Alberta.
We found Dean and Edna at home --- a great new condo with a walk-out basement. We still think they will come to AZ next winter. The town is mult-level with great views everywhere --
and no slums. D and E drove us around town for an hour and a half, and took us to dinner.
That's pretty hard to beat. Thanks guys, it was a neat visit.
This town says that it is the sunniest place in Canada.

We've had a lot of wind in our travels and it has blown us all over the place.
At Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, we saw the underground tunnels inhabited by the Chinese
immigrants, and the living condidions, and we saw the hide-out tunnels that gangster Al Capone
used in the '20s and '30s. Temps are now up to 75F and no snow.
Getting on the internet with a cell phone connection has been a problem across Canada.
Then we headed back to the good ole USA to get some of that cheap fuel and get back on the 'net.
Roads in Canada and in the states have been mostly good. In places patches upon patches upon
patches gave us a bumpy ride.

Tonite we're parked at Ogstons near Saginaw, MN. A pretty place with lakes all around.
Lotsa Canadian Geese here, so there are poops everywhere. Hosed off the car and Big Blue.
' Til next time, here goes.
