Yukon Journey

  Day #2
Thursday's journey was full of many beautiful vistas, like this one.
These shots were taken on the western part of Ontario before the Manitoba border.


We, by chance, ate lunch at a restaurant that has been featured on the Food Network. It's
located in Vermillion Bay, Ontario. That black bag you see there is all of our clothing
and bedding!

As you can see Buster has won many ribbons for his famous BBQ sauce.
Hubby wasn't thrilled about posing, but I thought my MIL would get a kick
 out of seeing his mug again!
The BBQ was good, but not as good as Tim's secret BBQ sauce.



I'm such a sucker for painted murals on walls like this one at Busters. I wish I could've
thrown it on top of the car and taken it with me.

Day#3
Oh, what a difference a day can make! Today we traveled through Saskatchewan and it rained
all the way. I forgot to photograph Manitoba yesterday-it was a lot of farmland, which this
time of year isn't really very pretty.
We passed this gas refinery as we approached Lloydminster, which is where we are
staying tonight. It's right on the Saskatchewan/Alberta border.
And this ladies is where I'm going to lay my head tonight. I haven't figured out yet how
just sitting in a car can make you feel so exhausted. I think it might have something
to do with the stress  of traveling through cities you're don't normally frequent, worrying
all of you're clothing on the top of the car will blow off; oh, all kinds of ridiculous stuff I
know! I think I'm just getting old! What else can it be?

That's it for days 1, 2, and 3. Since we got in early today, I hope to drop in and visit your
post and see how your day is going.
Sweet Dreams!
