May 20 Stony Plain Alberta

Today we left Lethbridge and drove about 300 miles to just west of Edmonton.  We asked our friends Diane and Dennis to pick out a nice place for lunch and they led us to a cornfield with an oil field for a little extra excitement. (See photo)   We then drove on and stopped at a beautiful lake outside of the village of Stony Plain.  We had dinner and are getting to bed early for the drive tomorrow to Dawson Creek, British Columbia.  That is mile 0 of the Alaska Highway and begins the real trek, 1422 miles through BC and the Yukon until we reach Alaska.
