We are well into the month of October and I am way behind in my blogging efforts. I am presently doing a work contract with the Department of Education (ELLA) and we are travelling around the province...so my homework this week will be blog each night......now to continue my summer journeys...
We left Calgary after leaving Laura in Lethbridge to attend a wedding. I hated to do those good byes again...but I feel good about her new beginnings. She is happy and that's what always matters the most.

From Calgary we crossed into Montana, spending the night in Great Falls...then we headed on into Idaho specifically headed to Star Idaho and a great visit with our friends The Hargraves. They had lived in Halifax many years ago and when they left they had two darling little boys....enjoy these photos..
