What a difference a day makes.

Even though it was -24C this morning, it was so much more bearable, with no wind.

The temperature did drop to -28 before we stopped at Tim's to pick a breakfast and have a visit with...

There still a few of the original grain elevators standing and in use in Saskatchewan. This is in Herbert.

Once into Alberta, the terrain was very flat. We passed Medicine Hat where we picked up an excellent coffee at Starbucks.

Then the sky clouded over, so there was no opportunity for photography.
