Up and on the way by 11 AM. I did my email and web page Mary read her paper - local free bimonthly. Basically drove and talked. The country is very flat but out gas mileage, still bucking a wind, is still not great. Stopped at the information center in Regina and ate lunch in the 5vr nice and relaxing - On to Moose Jaw where we camped early rested in the trailer and planned the next stage of the trip - we realized that we were probably about a day behind where we should be. So changed our plans for a two day stay, got a refund, ate supper in the trailer and set out to visit downtown Moose Jaw. While we were cooking supper, there was a small period of excitement as the fire trucks raced by to a vehicle fire on the main road just outside our campground. Could not run up and investigate as I had the hamburgers on the barbecue. We enjoyed a one-hour Trolley tour of the center of the city. Very well presented y an entertaining "conductor" and his sidekick driver Larry. While basically a mural and building tour the presentation, humor and history lessons made it well worth the money. I was surprised to find the tour almost full at 7 PM on a Friday night. Unfortunately or fortunately, depending upon your point of view, I forgot the camera - after the tour Mary found it in her purse so we did get a shot of the trolley. As the tour started and ended right outside the casino we added another gambling establishment to our experience. Luckily enough this time we both added to our holdings putting Mary close to even for the trip and I think I might even be on the plus side. This aspect of the trip is working out to be cheap amusement. Back to the campground to find it full and overflowing - glad we stopped when we did. As you will see from the pictures this campground is stone spaces with paved trailer sites. They are well packed and there are also several motel sections on the site. All features from Mini Golf to the Pool are extra cost. For our purposes it fits the need. Back at the trailer Mary beat me twice at cribbage and went to bed - Me to the computer.
