August 30, 2017. Prep and planning

LOCATION:  With my Aunt Martha and Uncle Leo at their home in Grande Prairie, Alberta

WEATHER:  Very pleasant.  Sunny.  High 78

 

Today was a day of planning.  I spent a lot of time on the internet making plans for a winter trip to Minnesota (!) and one to Mexico (!!). We also made reservations to spend a few days with Leo and Martha at Jasper National Park after we leave here next week.  Even though it will be after Labor Day, the resorts are busy.  We finally found a cabin available.  It will be fun to spend a few days there. We always enjoy staying with them.  

They live on a farm outside of Grande Prairie, but the town is "growing out" to their acreage.

We also were able to make arrangements to take the Airstream in to have the refrigerator repaired.  We will drop the Airstream off tomorrow and hope that they can fix it before the weekend.  

 

DINNER:  I made shrimp and sausage gumbo.  I was pleasantly surprised that I found fresh okra in the supermarket.  It turned out well.
