We had seen about all we wanted, cell phone service was limited as was Internet, so decided it might be time to move on.  We were still in the Jasper National Park for lunch and paid $36 for 2 sandwiches and 1 coke in a cafeteria.  That was another reason we left the Park, prices were high. It was amazing how quickly we were out of the mountains and into rolling meadows. There were lots of cows and horses in the fields.  Hay still needed to be bailed.  I called a number of RV parks before I finally found one that had a pull thru available.  We were just north of Calgary.  Internet was available at the laundromat and I needed to do some clothes so that worked out well.  The only difficulty was finding Canadian quarters for the $3/wash.  After begging at several businesses, I finally had enough to finish the 2 loads.  I also was able to get online and catch up with emails and the blog.  Larry tried to get DirecTV going but there were too many trees around us and no local channels so we read and did Sudoku.  We did have 50 amp power so didn’t have to run the generator, which was nice,
