... and trailer are pretty dirty. We got a tire and had one of our spares put on and then headed down the road. We made it to Grande Prairie by 6:30. We bought some fresh cherries in Fort St John's. Once you reach Fort St. John's, which is just West of Dawson Creek, Alberta, you are in a more populated area and your are no longer in the remote area's. We drove through a lot of farm land and we are out of ...

... was more concerned with his food. Once we saw that he wasn't going to charge us or anything, we turned off the bike and hung out and took pics. <br>Later on down the road, we saw several deer throughout the day, but didn't get any pictures as they are too fast and run across the road. I tell you, I could really do without seeing anymore deer on this trip, they are the one ...

Hello everyone,<br><br>We finally made it back to Grande Prairie and are taking a break from the blog until we continue our journey to Europe... we leave on July 23 and arrive in Paris on July 24th!!!! We likely won't be able to write as regular as we were on our U.S ...

We ended our year long journey where we started - at the Cassity Farm in northern Alberta. We took our last night bus of the trip from Calgary to Grande Prairie, and I must say, I really liked the good old Greyhound.<br><br>Our short trip was filled with visiting family and eating ...

... while admiring the mountain scenery all around. When that gets too hot, you can jump into one of two smaller cold pools. And afterwards, how about a picnic? This was the day that we had planned to drive to Calgary for the rodeo, and our decision to give away our tickets and forego culture (however you want to define it) in favor of nature and a more direct route to Alaska felt ever more right to us ...

... crashing in my lean-back front seat, but I&#8217;m probably as comfortable as anyone there, they with their fifth-wheels and satellite dishes, bacon and eggs, chips and salsa&#8230; oops! No, that&#8217;s me. Sometimes I even got a site with power and fire up the old black box here, just like home. I don&#8217;t think the aurora borealis is going to happen for me, but things could be worse. Of ...

We set forth to kill an elk and while we did ultimately fail in that respect the slaughter of a moose was enough to sate our bloodlust. Jerrod and I dropped a moose at650 yards, he hit it in the rear ankle and i shot it right below the front right quarter. I laid down in the bush and we hiked out and finished it off...big thanks to Jerrod, Justin and Dustin ...

... shopping and I bought green vegtables and really grainy bread. I made fresh guacamole and we had chicken with asparagus in a spicy tomato sauce. Cedrick and Roma came over for dinner, and brought dessert and drinks-- we enjoyed ourselves and had a great meal. We were so relaxed. Then, early this morning, bang! They were home. There weren't suppose to be home until sunday evening, it was a whole day early. Peace disrupted ...

... owner, five local boys who were between 14-16 and us four. The first time I got shot in the gun, I am still not sure how that qualifies as a hit... Then I ran out of paint, but survived the time limit. In the final game, I got shot right on the hand. It was hard enough to break the skin and now I have a perfect round circle mark on the middle finger of my right hand. All in all I think I did pretty well, at least I hit more than I got hit. One game I ...

... There is a wide variety of skills and it was decided that the partnership with the best skills would teach the class. My skills are design, as I did newspaper/magazine layout for four years, and Yulia's skills were pretty basic in general, so you would think it would be simple, but a very stubborn teammember insisted on wanting to teach powerpoint (which I had originally included in design.) The ridiculousness of this temper tantrum is that her teammate has a ...
