We have arrived in Canada

We arrived in Lethbridge Alberta Canada.  We left Wyoming this morning and it was 47 degrees and as we traveled to Billings, Montana the temp improved to 62 and some rain.  From Billings we traveled on what I thought were "lost roads",  in otherwords, I was not sure we knew where we were or where we were going.  We encountered Montana road construction.  The road was 2 lanes and both were underconstruction.  They were gravel and dirt roads with a speed limit of 35 mph. We would stop and wait for the pilot car, go a few miles and be out of the construction zone only to get back into the next construction zone.  Charlie was VERY restless in the construction zones.Once we got out of the construction zone, we then encountered a detour of about 22 miles.  At 3:30 p.m. we were finally able to eat a late lunch in a very small town, but it was a great lunch, much like Cafe Clinton. 

We had no problems crossing the border - Thank you Jesus. It was almost scary how easy it was. The weather here in Lethbridge, is beautiful, but the scenery is much like Oklahoma, but we are barely into Canada so I'm sure that will change.  Oh, it is 9:30 and still daylight.  I will post pics later tonight. 

We  are meeting one of Richard's college friends in Calgary for Brunch tomorrow and then from there we hope to travel a least 500 more miles, we will see.  At this rate we will make North Pole hopefully Monday.

For those who know about the lost keyfob - the one I couldn't find when we left Clinton - IT HAS BEEN FOUND. Finding it is not the coolest part - the coolest part is at 10ish Oklahoma time last night a very special friend was praying we would find it.  I found the key in my laptop bag when we arrived last night at our hotel at 9ish which is 10ish Oklahoma time.  PTL for answered prayers, everyone keep them coming our way.

Love to everyone - Be Blessed.  More posts tomorrow - I hope.
