June 25 arrival in Hinton


Took the day off from site-seeing and went into Hinton to do some shopping. Had lunch at a local pizza place, where the meat lover’s pizza consisted of hamburger and Canadian Bacon. Interesting, but had enough cheese on it to make it really good.

On the way back to the RV Park we saw two male Caribou’s grazing along side of the highway. These were much more mature than the one we saw yesterday, both of these guys had full racks. Early in the season yet, they were still ‘in velvet’. This was the first time I had ever seen a rack ‘in velvet’ and I can totally understand why this term was applied, as they really do look like velvet! Makes you want to go right up and touch them, just to see if they are as soft as they look! 


We played two games of hand and foot and the guys won both.  They are starting to catch up and may soon take the lead in games won.  :-(

The news out of Calgary is encouraging and it looks like the Stampede is going to be a go!
