ALBERTA NATIONAL T TOUR – Days 5,6,7

Okotoks to Calgary to Cochrane, AB, a bunch of miles on trains, planes, and automobiles.        Whew, whirlwind.  Calgary Stampede, here we come. 

Grounds are huge, almost downtown, look at the buildings, in the background, not bad for a cow town.
 
We waded past the carnival parts and found the ag buildings.  Eat Alberta beef!!
Pat loves the draft horses, good thing the trailer is small.
Almost front row for the chuck wagon races.
Chuck wagon races are crazy. Check out the videos.  https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5tzXiEnjYovbzZxNXQwWjZqcDQ/view?usp=sharing

Madhouse when the show was over. Can you spot David in this picture? 
We survived two days at the Stampede and then headed for Cochrane, Alberta.    But,,,,,,,,  we had to stop at Heritage Park in Calgary, even though it was dripping rain.  And guess what we found to look at,,,,,   They have a new building called Gasoline Alley.
And now,,,, we have arrived at Cochrane,   this must be the place, lot of Model T’s out there.  

Guess what we had for the welcome BBQ?    ALBERTA BEEF by the local Lions Club and entertainment by some local talent..  Remember this girls name, Katie Jo Kirk,  could be the next Sheryl Crow.

That is just the tip of all the stuff we have been doing, and tomorrow, make that this morning, we are off to Banff.
