Driving through the Prairies

We left Rock Creek BC on July 1st and made it  to Cranbrook where we spent our 1st night at a Walmart!  We were all against Walmart camping until we tried it and it actually wasn't that bad after all!

We left BC and spent one night in Alberta in the Cypress Hills Provincail park.  Hit the road on July 3rd for Saskatchewan and spent the night in Regina ( at Walmart again...lol!).

Our plan was to see the Grasslands National Park until Sampson ran away!  We made the mistake of letting him off his leash while we were geocaching in Sask. and he took off after a gopher or prairie dog...he ran approx 2 km's away and it took almost 2 hours for us to get him back.  We were all covered in mud including him after the ordeal!

 July 4th we spent the night at Spruce Woods Provincial Park in Manitoba.  The bugs were fierce!  We decided to hit the road again...and are now in Dryden, Ontario!

All we keep on saying is "show us the lobster traps" so we are heading to PEI quicker than anticipated!
