We slept in a bit and then packed our car and got Gladys out of the trunk and ready to go. We stopped in Brooks to eat and Medicine Hat to try to find a linen cupboard we want...found it but could not get into our car. We got to Swift Current and washed our car that was still covered with mud from our Day 1 trip on the back roads to Gull Lake. Gladys then led us east as she seemed to know exactly how to get to Karen and Ken's. The kids were waiting on the front step waving to us and we were glad to see them again. They seem to grow when we don't see them for a week. They also are getting smart as they knew the bag we were carrying had something in there for them. Karen had a nice supper ready and we spent a couple of hours there before heading to the lake. We are unpacked and the first load of dirty clothes is in the wash..... Now off to bed...Ah sweet pillow, nothing like one's own bed.
Stay tuned for my top 12 things that I would or would not do the next time........

Glad you're home safe and sound. Your trip sounds wonderful! Would much rather have been with you than where we were (lake - the guys shingling roof - me cooking).
ReplyDeleteLeft the laptop at home so couldn't read your day-by-day account. Just got home tonight and have enjoyed "doing" your trip with you over the past 1/2 hour.
Hope to see you soon and get more first hand accounts.
Love, tg
If I do this comment-posting-stuff often enough I will learn how to post something from someone other than "anonymous"!!
