It was a cold start today but NO RAIN!! It was a nice riding day, according to Bill except he wishes we were heading into Alaska, not away from it.Stopped in Dawson Creek to take a picture of us at Mile Marker Zero. The town was a little disappointing to me. Maybe we missed something but I thought there would have been more to do with the town's heritage but all we saw was a string of modern businesses and NO SHOPPING!!Once we were in Alberta, the landscape changed to
prairies. Lots of wide open spaces. Gone were the mountains. Large canola fields that were beautiful, bright yellow against the cloudy horizon. You can definitely tell we were on 
the prairie because of the wind, whipping across the fields. Since grain is a huge industry, we saw lots of grain elevators. 
Lots of farms along the highway with beef cattle.

Lots of farms along the highway with beef cattle. Rolled into Edmonton about 4 p.m. Large town, LOTS of traffic. Something we haven't been used to for a long time.
Tomorrow is our last bike riding day -- into Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, where we left the truck and trailer.
