We left Gillette as planned on Monday and traveled to Reed Point Montana just for the night. The next day we went as far as Great Falls Mt and spent the night at Walmart. We left there the next day on Wednesday and made it into Canada by mid morning. Our destination for the day was High River in Alberta, we stopped in Nanton on the way at the Air Museum and the Garden Railroad display. We stayed in High River two years ago and liked the town for it many murals, campground and friendly people.
The next morning we headed for White Court AB for two nights. It was a very busy town supporting the oil drilling and pipeline industry.
We left Saturday morning for Dawson Creek in British Columbia with a quick stop in Beaverlodge. Our caravan leaders Al and Gracie met there some fifty years ago, Gracie was born and raised there and Al was stationed there in the Armed services.
We arrived in Dawson Creek in early afternoon, this is where the caravan starts on Monday afternoon.
We ate dinner at the campground and then went to Mass in town about two miles away, it is the only Catholic Church for over 100 miles. After Church we visited The mile 0 marker of the Al Can Highway.
