Chapter 3

 Leaving Yellowstone National Park on Monday, June 2, we turned north toward Shelby, and on to the border crossing at Sweet Grass, MT.





Great plains of Montana


Stopping in Livingston at a quilt store, the guys wandered next door to a fly fishing store, and learned of Wheat Montana Farms, a great place for homemade breads, flours, and great lunch deals.  We enjoyed a delicious lunch and left with fresh bread and cinnamon rolls.
 






Snow capped mountains lured us further north.
 


Bob and Donna lead the way across the border into Canada.  Note Tom and Jan's Mini reflected in Hitch's rear window.


We all crossed the border without delay.
 


The University of Lethbridge's main building blends into the surrounding rolling hills.

 



The Canadian Pacific Railway High Level Bridge was an architectural marvel of the early 1900s.  At 5,327 feet long and over 300 feet high, it is the longest and highest trestle bridge in the world.  This 106 year old bridge is still in use.
 


Beaverlodge landmark, a favorite photo-op for many tourists, was our last stop in Alberta.
