GRANDE PRAIRIE, ALBERTA JULY 10 71 DAYS OUT

Out on the Alaska Highway heading to Grand Prairie Alberta
Rain and cold last night made the MOSQUITOS vicious
this morning... 


 Look at the RV's heading to Alaska. 
We sure planned it right.


 Lots of logging trucks on the highway


 GESH..they come close..this one is a double
Stay on your side!




 Look at all the wildflowers along the road..
How the scenery has changed in one month
Just budding out to full bloom.


 Look at all the yellow fields..it's Canola!

 Sure makes beautiful fields




 Dawson Creek, BC
 Firewood for the winter?
 Canola fields..What else do you get besides oil?
We'll have to look that one up!

Welcome to Alberta
  Farming, oil, gas..a very lucrative area. 
 They already have the first cutting of hay baled

 Grand Prairie is just that..a beautiful farming community
Our campsite is on a farm  ...we're in the country
and a beautiful sunset tonight.
 Purples, pinks, blues and fluffy clouds...
Haven't seen a sunset in awhile..
Doesn't set in Alaska during the summer ya know!
Oh my, it seems strange..having dusk.

Tomorrow:  On to Edmonton Alberta
Get excited-one of the largest shopping malls!
