Still here

There have not been many changes to our daily routine. I did a load of laundry on Tuesday and on Wednesday we drove to Hanna for some groceries and a propane fill.

We did come across this family in the campground. A Great horned owl and young ones! Obviously the young ones were able to fly as they left this perch after a couple of days.

We had been enjoying the empty and very quiet campground when this happened. Two bus loads (about 16 people) of students along with tents and gear pulled in and set up camp. Right next door to us in an empty campground!!?😳 What are the odds? Anyway it turns out they were from the U of AB and were doing water sampling around the province. They were already gone by 10 am the following morning. They were more short term entertainment than a disruption! It was a lot of work to set up camp for that overnight stay. They also had to deal with some rain and chilly (3C) overnight temps!! Apparently their next stop is in the Medicine Hat area.

The week flew by and it was Friday once again. The weekend campers began to arrive.  We now have 3 young families camped next door. Hopefully they find some of my painted rocks!
We plan to head home on Monday for a few days. Our condo unit is getting new stucco and paint, so hopefully that will be completed before we arrive!?
