Saskatoon to Calgary

As this was going to be a long driving day we decided to leave Borden by 9am. On the way out we passed by the picturesque, abandoned Borden bridge.

When we reached the Alberta border we had lunch at the rest area in the town or Alsask. (right on the border)

The crops seemed more mature in Alberta as shown by this field of Canola.



The trip took us about 7 1/2 hours. And the closer we got to Calgary the warmer it got. We arrived with 28C temperatures.

We stayed with Norm and Dana Rempel in Calgary. (Dana is Lucy's niece) They had to go out for a bit so we had some fun with Marley around the house.

Besides Marley this shows Norm's amazing workmanship on the stove range hood.

Spending some time on the back deck. This sort of looks into the dining area. Dana designed the house and Norm built it.

The old with the new. The house is very modern but has some beautiful antique furniture as accents. (spot Marley?)

We spent two nights with Norm and Dana. We had dinner with them and Dana's sister Carla joined us. We slept well both nights and then headed out early in the morning for Kamloops.
