After leaving British Columbia we entered Alberta. About this point the terrain became rather flat and dull and the temperature increased into the 80s. This was miserable for us since we hadn't hardly seen 70 degrees since May. At least the highway was good; straight and smooth. From here on out we are just making miles and trying to get to Ely MN for our camp site reservation on Friday August 19. We bought 95 gallons (360 liters) of fuel at the Flying J in Edmonton. We spent Monday night at a pull-off near Bezanson AB, We spent Tuesday and Wednesday nights in Walmarts at North Battleford SK and Portage la Prairie MB, respectively. We are making about 450 miles per day with frequent stops. We zigged south and bypassed Winnipeg and entered North Dakota north of Grand Forks. We spent Thursday night at another Walmart in Hibbing MN.
It's good to be back in the USA.
