Off To The Farm(Barker's Retreat)!

After we left Kananaskis, we parked our unit in the Casino parking lot and stayed the night there.  In the morning we went for breakfast in the Casino, then off to Cochrane to meet Leon & Cindy.  We met in the old Canadian Tire parking lot.  I went into safeway and picked up the groceries we needed, and then we were all on our way.  We stopped in Red Deer to meet Gordy & Gertrude for lunch at the Windmill Cafe.  It was real nice to see them, and we had a very nice visit.  We stopped in Wetaskiwin at Kamparoo because Leon wanted to check them out.  We were then on our way to the farm. Herman texted us and asked approximately what time we would arrive.  I told him about 5:30pm.  When we got there we set up our units, and then went to sit around the fire for the evening.  We had a nice visit with Herman.  He had to leave on Friday as he was going to a Forestry Reunion, but he would be back on Sunday with Annette for a couple of days.  They couldn't stay longer because the were leaving for holidays to Halifax.  Doug & Leon helped Herman put up a shelter for his motorhome.  It took 2 days to put up.  Doug & Leon also repaired some fencing for Herman.  We had a fantastic 10 days at the farm.  The weather was gorgeous and fun was had by all.
