I have returned from the north and land of no cell reception. It seems the gravel road we bitched about to get there became our savior on the way home. Mother Nature thought it was a good day to rain ice cubes. For over 3 hours we plugged along in freezing rain and we were happy to have the gravel to give us traction. When the gravel turned to paved road we had to do the opposite of normal. We reduced speed considerably.
Luckily by noon the freezing rain ended and the sun came out to dry the highway. We're in the clear we thought! It's warm in Alberta and we are heading towards it! Yeah right. By the time we got back to our home province darkness had set in and the warm moist air had turned into thick fog! Always a treat for tired eyes. But we made it, several hours behind our intended ETA but all in one piece. Ahhh, life on the road. As trying as it was it still beats a day job!
