Last day in Calgary, but we didn't go to Calgary!

August 21 -  This was a lazy day to start!  Wasn’t looking too nice out and we really didn’t want to  go into Calgary with the traffic and road construction.  We found a small town not too much further away that we went to, Cocharne.  I needed a toner cartridge for my printer and they had a Staples there, Walmart, Canadian Tire and more.  The nice thing is it was all in one area.  They have really laid out the town well so you can do all or your shopping within a ¼ of a mile.  There’s also a Safeway store, Dollarama, sporting goods, clothing stores and quite a few restaurants.

Once we got our shopping done Bill wanted to lunch at Mike’s, so we did.  The food was excellent and we were a bit after the normal lunch time so it was pretty quiet. 

Then it was a short drive home with no traffic to contend with.  The amusement park lot was still full and the spaces that had emptied at the campground were now filled again.  We did get some rain but not heavy and it did not deter anyone from staying at the amusement park.  They literally do no leave until the place closes.

I got my printer back in action and am trying to do the paperwork to submit to Medicare for Bill’s emergency hospital visit.  What a pain!  He’s got to make a couple of calls while we drive tomorrow so I get the correct place to send it to. 

We had a nice dinner of fresh asparagus, ham, fresh tomatoes and the last of the potato salad.  I tried to get fresh green beans again today and they don’t have them.  Hope to get some when we get back to Montana!!!

Nothing else to report for today.  We head pretty directly south in the morning!
