February 23-26 Saskatoon, SK

If you haven't realized by now, I'm just creating an itinerary...I'll update the posts as I go!

I also wonder how Regina ever got to be the capital of Saskatchewan!  I saw an episode of Corner Gas last night, and all of a sudden it makes sense!

February 22, Regina, SK

February 19-21, Saskatoon, SK, CANADA!

February 18, Malta, MT

February 16, 17 Sheridan, WY

February 15th Billings Montana

February 14th Idaho Falls, ID

Happy Valentine's Day to us!

We saw Zumanity last night....don't go unless you want to be groped by strangers!  Seriously amazing show.  Then we drove to Idaho Falls, and on the way stopped into a little family restaurant that had vomited red sparkles and hearts all over.  Luckily, we did not require a reservation!  Unfortunately, the only thing I could eat there was salad.  It came with half a small piece of ciabatta bread, and I had to request they leave the meat off.

Strange thing about the United States, they like to make salads as UNhealthy as everything else; warm bacon dressing seems to be a staple!  And don't even ask about Country Fried Steak!

February 12th LAS VEGAS

Can you blame me that this post is late?

Yes, Vegas is a fantastical place.  We could see the lights shining from two-hundred miles away (okay, maybe not two-hundred), and we saw the Hoover Dam.

We got our first taste of Homeland Security as we were waved aside from the road to the Hoover Dam and questioned about the contents of our truck.  We pulled out all our luggage at their request, and were deemed to have twelve pieces of official luggage.  If we had 13 pieces, we would not have been able to cross the Dam, as scientists have deemed that 13 pieces of luggage loaded with dynamite could seriously damage the Dam, but 12 would only be a minor inconvenience.  Lesson learned!
