Well, family and friends, I'm back home again and all that entails, unpacking, and returning to work. My trip home was an interesting one. I started off with the idea of visiting Banff, Calgary, Edmonton, and Jasper, with a short stop to visit a long time friend in Hinton, Alberta. Boy, how plans can change! Missing my turnoff in Cranbrook, BC, to go to Banff, I decided to travel all the way to Lethbridge instead. The trip there was spectacular, with many opportunities to take photos of some of the scenery along the route.
Leaving Lethbridge, I decided to visit some RV dealerships to try to find a small camper trailer to spend most of the summer living in. Guess what...by the time I arrived in Edmnton, I discovered that no dealer carries any that I could afford without going into several thousand dollars in debt, which I am not eager to do. Finally a salesman gave me a suggestion - to look up kijiji.com for what I wanted where I was located.
As a consequence, I dragged a small 15' Travel Aire camper trailer home behind my van. A tiny bit of fix-it-up and it's almost as good as new. Now I can hardly wait to haul it into the country and set it up for a trial run just for the heck of it, only problem being that white stuff which is everywhere here in the north, and as of supper time last night has been getting deeper by the hour. Ah well, there's always spring just around the corner, after corner, after corner, etc.
