Title: Sep 20 - 22, 2004

September 20, 2004 -

Off to the Royal Saskatchewan Museum today. Kids really seemed to enjoy the wildlife exhibits and the fact that most of the limestone that were used for the museum, legislative buildings, etc - (quarry out of Winnipeg) has fossils in them. They have now spent several hours looking at the various old buildings trying to find all the different fossils.

Again Canasta tonight - and the boys won again.

Today was dedicated to retrofitting the Motor Home. We removed the swivel seat from the motor home - and replaced it with two totes - to hold the all the various school books and supplies that the boys have. This allows the materials to be permanently stored there and we do not have to move boxes around and off the seats to eat. Although it took some time to come up with the design - actual installation did not take too long. Kids watched movies and played games but did not do much of anything else.

Canasta tonight - and the girls finally won.

Plan was to leave Regina today - however we were delayed by a minor mechanical problem (heater fan not working). While it was being repaired we did a walk around Wascana Park and did a tour of the Legislative buildings. It was a beautiful day to walk around. Had a great lunch at a little restaurant at the Park.
Finally got on the road about 3:00 pm - and went as far as Virden, Manitoba. Nice little campground run by the local Lion's Club. It seems like a very friendly little town. Only problem seemed to be the nine trains that came through the town that night - with the tracks being close to the campground.
