3 generation roadtrip
















We left Fort Mac @ 05:30 Friday morning. and arrived in Portage la Prairie @ about 12:00 midnight (alberta time). The LITTLE guy did very well and so did Jordan and Austin. Saturday Wayne took us for a demo at GULL Lake just north of Winnipeg, after which we closed the deal when I forked over the rest of the almost $30 thou. Then the long trip home started. You could tell the truck was labouring especially with a headwind (next item to be okayed by the BOSS will be a Lariat deisel 3/4 ton). We stopped @ Regina and spent the night. The go-cart trak and amusement place that I had taken Jordan and a few boys of his little league team, back in the mid 90's was closed down, so we kept going north to Lloydminster. Got back to the Mac @ 12:00 midnight. All were tired but had a safe and fun trip (the bum cheeks are sore though). These were longer days than Mom, Dad, Sylvia and I did to go to Pats wedding in Washington last summer.
