Grande Prairie, Alberta, Canada
Tuesday, August 25, 2009
It was raining in
Fort Nelson when with left this morning, but before we left, Les noticed that 2 of our tires where looking pretty bad from bouncing so much and driving over rocks. So we found a tire store (I guess you could call it a store) The parking lot was mud and full of pot holes and so were all the other parking lots of the other businesses there. All the mud was then carried onto the road so our truck and trailer are pretty dirty. We got a tire and had one of our spares put on and then headed down the road. We made it to
Grande Prairie by 6:30. We bought some fresh cherries in Fort St John's. Once you reach
Fort St. John's, which is just West of Dawson Creek, Alberta, you are in a more populated area and your are no longer in the remote area's. We drove through a lot of farm land and we are out of the high country. We will be staying one more night in Canada and then should be in Montana by day after tomorrow. We saw some beautiful elk and buffalo herds, but they were fenced in on ranches. Nothing else to write about. Only took pictures of wheat fields today. Sorry about the travelpod yesterday. I was having trouble uploading my pictures and then after sending, I noticed that I sent it twice. Oh well.
