HEY EVERYONE...MAKE SURE TO CHECK DENNIS AND CAROL HILL'S BLOG OFTEN. THERE ARE SOME GREAT PICS OF US THERE SINCE WE ARE CRAZY!!!!!!!!! LOL http://rvdrivingschool.blogspot.ca/ Here we are in Dawson Creek....5.24.14 Ups and downs and frustrations for the most part. But the sun is out and the weather is nice this afternoon. We are safe and in a town with a radiator problem and not miles out of town in the wilderness. Our group left this morning headed up the Alaskan Highway. It was really sad to see them go heading off while we stayed behind. We'll see what Monday will bring. Steve and the men did everything they could think of....but still this radiator leaks and can't have that, for sure. Today I live with an open hand, fully right where I am in this time, thankful and trusting in the One who leads, delays and makes a way where there is no other way...(thanks Ann Voskamp A Thousand Gifts) Steve and I parked the Queen Bee at Wal-Mart, on the far corner

It's Grand! Grand Cache and Grand Prairie
Reflections of May 19, 2014 Grand Cache and Grand Prairie Alberta Canada *We parked in Super Stealth mode...behind an abandoned store. We unhooked prior to arrival to give Queen Bee a rest on some steep hills and so Peewee was unhooked. We drove around the little town in a driving rain to find a night spot. Just when we were back to the rig, Steve spotted the closed convenience store. We drove to the back and found a nifty nook, nice and level. So we pulled up and backed in, put down the jacks and were cozy for the night...as it kept raining. In a few hours the rain stopped. We had homemade pizza and A &W root beer from the shop up the street, with no ice...as that is how they serve their drinks. Gotta love Canada! The next morning, actually the 19th, Steve was checking the outside and I was readying the inside to make our way to Grande Prairie, when he discovered a flat tire on the inside left dually. We were up really early so got on the phone with our Road service
Oh Canada! Milk River, Okotoks, and on to Cremona
Milk River May 3, 2014 As we approached the Canadian border I hummed O Canada and readied the passports! After a few questions from the border agent and our very straight forward answers, we were told to have a good day and our passports were handed back and we crossed over into Alberta! It has been 7 years since we last visited with such great memories! The weather however is not really cooperating with us. Luckily we have had "Alaska training" in Wyoming and are pretty used to just being cold! LOL We arrived in Milk River, a short way from the border, on a gray chilly and flurryish day. The Queen Bee nestled in front of our friend Dottie's mobile home on Main Street in Milk River, Alberta. After hello hugs Steve attempted to connect our electric to hers. Each time it would snap out. He checked her cords, and then began taking our electric apart trying to figure out the problem. Finally, he realized it might be her power as we have a management system
