Glenn made us an expert breakfast, served in the Saloon - he said this was his first B&B hosting when the second B was for Breakfast and not Beer. We shared stories about travel and education and creative pursuits for a couple of hours and then we were on our way in the rain.
Happily we whizzed along with the wind and arrived at our Dunmore B&B by 5pm (
Friendz of Ours). We had lightning and thunder with the rain at the half way point about 10Kms before the Alberta/Saskatchewan border, so stopped at the Alberta side information centre for over an hour to dry out a bit and warm up.
The staff there were welcoming and gave us a special snack pack for cyclists and B signed their cyclist guest book. They told us that cyclists rarely travelled East to West, as we are doing. So far, for many reasons, we are happy with our choice to travel East to West, but it does look like we are headed into some long sections in Southern Alberta with the wind from the West!
I am so glad you posted! I've been thinking of you two. I just caught up in reading all the days in your journey and it's fascinating! May you have easier rides from now on, and perhaps a wild rose or two, to view. much love, J.
