Travel Preparation

    We left the beach two weeks ago. These have been 2 of the busiest week that I can remember. Our first stop was Lumsden which was only a hop, step, and jump down highway. We were then able to reorganize our stored items and the the storage in the truck and the boot (that's what we call the basement in our trailer). Many of the bins that we were taking with us had extra stuff in them. Why do we collect so much stuff? Everyone is collecting stuff. So we were able the change a few of the bins, and remember what is in them, to use the space more efficiently. Now there are big bins in the truck and small bins in the boot.

  After Lumsden, we headed west on Highway 1 and were able to get to Medicine Hat. Boon docking there in an abandoned Wallmart parking lot, we arrived with only a few rigs in the lot. In the morning there were close to  twenty or twenty five rigs that had pulled in overnight. Having all our supplies and stuff with us we made a quick get away west toward Calgary.

Sunrise in late September Cochrane, AB

     In Calgary we only stopped for a couple of hours then in early evening we took Highway 8 and 22 to Cochrane. There we found a beautiful spot named the Bow Riveredge Campgound. This RV park has only been open for 4 year and is set up and run very well. We will be here until the 17th of October.

Mountain Peaks in Canmore, AB

      One of the day trips that we had recently was to Canmore, AB.  It was a beautiful day with lots of sun and blue sky.
