Left beautiful Kamloops, BC this morning after a wonderful stay and touring of the fantastic city. It is so clean, friendly and comfortable. Took Abby for a run in the park and
she made friends with another little poodle. She is getting more comfortable with other dogs, or should I say she tolerates them better. The temp is 58 degrees, and it does not feel like that at all, more like 68 degrees. The temps I give out are from the car gauge. Still can't figure out their system. Gas is averaging about $4.74 a gallon in US dollars, and because the dollar keeps falling, it gets worse. Today it was only 90 cents for the dollar. Got a $1.00 coffee and gave them a Canadian dollar and there was a .12 tax!! We figured that going 56 MPH = 90 Kilometers---62 MPH = 100 Kilometers. Kinda stressful driving today thr
ough the canyons, we had some hard rain and the temp dropped to 58 degrees. But it did not last long and soon we were out in the sunshine again.. We pulled into Golden, BC which is just outside of Banff overlooking the Banff National Park. The Canadian Rocky Mountains is the next hurdle when we get to Calgary, Alberta. Had a nice dinner at the "Diner" next to the hotel. These pictures of the flowers at Butchart Gardens I had to share to show what a great photographer I live with. They are absolutely beautiful!!!

That's cool! I'm looking forward to reading about your Canadian adventures. I coordinate a shipment of LNG to Kamloops occasionally. It is an ongoing joke with my boss and I because it is really annoying to coordinate and it always falls on week she is on vacation and I'm always stressing about dang Kamloops delivery. haha.
