On The Road--Day One--September 20,2005
We finally got to leave! We took off about 7 am, heading straight down highway 41. When we left home we were paying 106.9 per liter(CAD) for gas, at Oyen, AB. we paid 98.9 per litre. After passing Consort, AB. about the only interesting things we saw were the antelopes and we wonder why they live there. The land is flat and at this time of year very brown and uninteresting. Cypress Hills Park was the only green and treed spot in the whole area. It appears suddenly and is gone just as quickly; and the land reverts to brown and barren. We crossed the USA border at 3:30 PM at the Port of Wild Horse. Customs was a bit more involved than pre 9-11 but not bad at all. A few minutes and a trunk check and we were off. That night we stayed in Harlem, Montana; where gas was $281.9 per gallon(US).
