Day 17 and camping has never been better.

A hearty hello from Jasper. We are live and on the net thanks to Linda's brother and his fancy air card. It is hard to believe that you can sit in a camper in Jasper national park and surf the net on a laptop. Man has camping ever changed.
Well the day got off to a wet start this morning. We were only 20 minutes down the road when we saw our first sign of impending rain
We decided that discretion would be the better part of valor especially today, so it was rain suits on and a couple of sumos were soon rolling down the highway. We had lunch in Valemount and the soup was delicious.
After lunch and a fuel up it was back on the road, and on to Jasper. Not a lot of stops today because the temperature was a tad lower than we are used to, and stopping wasn't helping us warm up. Shortly outside of Valemount, we were treated to Mount Robson. Unfortunately there were clouds, but not a bad view

Soon enough we found Jeff and Gloria slumming at the Fairmount Jasper Park Lodge. What a nice place (thanks Cheryl).
We went back to the trailer and had buffalo steaks for supper. Man what a feed. I am afraid it will be lots of exercise and walks for me when I get home. We hope to spend a couple of days here with Jeff and Gloria and then we are off again toward Brandon. Hopefully we will get to the icefields while we are here. Until next time.
