Drive Through the Rockies
Calgary Stampede
Two more items are now off Ray’s ‘bucket list’ of things
to do and places to visit before we die.
Ray had never been to the Calgary Stampede and had never
driven the scenic route through the Rockies from Vancouver to Calgary. For me it
was reliving my experiences as an 18 year old Chambermaid at the Banff Springs
hotel one summer long ago and hitch-hiking to Calgary for the Stampede.
We decided to start our trip in Vancouver where we could
visit several of our friends and relatives, rent a car and drive via Jasper to
Calgary where we would stay with Marg and Jack Dunphy, keen Stampeders.
The entire trip was everything we could have hoped for.
