Just relaxed today. Took a walk around the campsite and talked to a few people.
7-18-11. This morning we left Malmstrom AFB and went on our way to Great Falls. Farmland as far as the eye can see. Stopped at Tim Horton’s for dinner then to the gas station. A wind and hail storm came through while we were filling up the truck. Headed for the Red Deer Lions Municipal Campground about 8:00.
7-19-11 Stayed in Grand Prairie at Rotary International RV Park near welcome center. As Dave was walking through the park, he met a guy who’s brother was stationed at Plattsburgh (small world). We went on a tour of Grand Prairie given by the Welcome Center—very interesting. .
7-20-11. Left camp about 7:15. The Alcan Highway started at Dawson Creek We stopped at another Welcome Center for more info on the sites up further on the Alcan. We stopped for the 
night at Fort Nelson. Lost another hour on the clock.
7-21-11. Got on the road at 7:30. The weather was a mixture of light rain and sunshine. It was a great day as far as seeing the wildlife. We saw 2 moose, 4 herds of bison, and 5 bears at different spots on the road. We also saw a stone goat. Took over 500 pictures today of scenery and wildlife. We stopped at Watson Lake, Yukon, for the night. Met another nice couple in the laundry room. He gave Dave his card and asked him to look them up on the way home.
