 July 7, 2021 Day 3

After breakfast we headed north towards NWT border.  Along the way we saw tree damage due to a bad storm they had a few days ago.  Lots of trees down and lots broken half way up.  Pulled into Meandering River for fuel only to find out that they have no power so everything was closed down so without fueling up we would not make the next stop, so we headed back to High Level.  We were also going to go to Rainbow Lake and were told that the road was washed out in three places.  So much for the north country so we checked out of motel and headed SE towards home. At least half of the people up there are stilled masked up and scared of everyone.

Went thru Peace River and got to go over the new bridge they were building last year when we were in the Peace. Headed east on Hwy 2 till the turn off for Swan Hills.  Road was good for the first 10 miles and the last 5 miles.  My back is so sore from all the horrible road I think that my body is 2 inches shorter in the back than this morning. LOL.

Got to Swan Hills and their roads are no better.  Got checked into the only motel we could find.  Nice Chinese restaurant just in the parking lot.  Awesome food.  Will go there for breakfast in the morning.

We traveled 715 KM (445M) today. It was +30 at one point.

No pictures today.  Will be home tomorrow and will add them in then.
