ON THE ROAD AGAIN

Yes indeedy, more saddle time.  Yesterday I went to Edmonton and met a fellow firearms enthusiast, Greg aka fassteel on Gun Nutz.  We had a coffee and shot the breeze about important things like guns and hunting, and I drove off through that TERRIBLE Edmonton traffic, and into the beautiful prairie country to the north. I was hoping to meet up with Arch1965, another gun nut  who lives in this area, but could not get ahold of him on the phone or by e-mail. Arch is a farmer and undoubtedly very busy at this time of the year. Too bad, I would have liked to meet him, and so many other area Gun Nutz, but...........I have to be in Cold Lake this evening for some fishing with old buddies.

Here is a pic of fassteel and myself:



When he met me, he said he had always envisaged me being bigger than I am. I am a man of normal stature - Greg is six foot five!

Last night I stayed in a lovely RV park near Gibbons AB, and Wifi has been excellent.  Funny how clean washrooms used to be the barometer of how good a campground was.  Now it is WiFi connectivity............

Yesterday, I drove past a town called Fallis.  I wonder how the good people of Fallis pronounce the name of their town.  Just curious..............
