We finally got good road. However, the gods were not entirely with us. We were inundated with torrential rain and 25 mile an hour winds all the way from Dawson Creek to Edmonton. We had actually planned to end up south of Edmonton but because the winds and rain were tossing us all over the highway, we decided it was time to get off the road.

Yesterday we cleaned the vehicles. You can see the before and after picture of the Tracker.  While Michael was washing the motor home, Lily and I discovered a really nice trail where I photographed the magpie. These beautiful, noisy birds were all over the place. I also saw a red winged black bird and some sort of sparrow.

Before & After

We checked the weather and it looks like we will have rain and wind all the way to the US border. Oh well. Guess we’ll just have to see how far we can get. We’ve heard that Glacier is not completely open to traffic yet because of the heavy snow fall this winter. We’ll check the road conditions when we get down that way and decide what we want to do.

Have a meat loaf in the oven and plan to make mac and cheese and spinach. Nothing like comfort food on a blustery day.
