Day 2

Got up this morning to reports of severe thunderstorms all along the Trans Canada. Not much info as to where the cells were on the Weather Network so I tried the radar maps online with the new phone and could see that we might just hit the south end of north moving storms. As I loaded up the car there was lightning all over the sky to the west amd mosquitos all over me. We decided to head out anyway and managed to miss every purple mess until we got to Maple Creek (where the washout was last weeek) and then it came down and got windy. No funnels or lightning so we kept on going. Came out of the clouds in Medecine Hat and stayed dry the rest of the way. Almost 1100km today. We only stooped for gas, coffee and bathroom breaks. The Impreza must be more comfy as we don't feel like we travlled that far in 2 days. We'll have some more pix later. Below Ginko the travel monkey shows off his Montanas moose antlers and enjoys? his bath.
