Safe return

Thanks to those who prayed for our safe travels, as your prayers(and ours) were answered. We left Tuesday morning, traveling in tandem with Curtis' brother and family to Hinton,AB, where we spent the night at a bed & breakfast owned by friends of Curtis' uncle & aunt. We arrived in Kingman on Wednesday afternoon.

The graveside service was Thursday morning at 11 at the Kingman cemetery, attended mostly by family. It was very cold and windy. The memorial service was held in a church in Camrose at 2 pm, and was well attended, as Mormor was well loved and respected. It was a beautiful service.

Friday was spent with family, and I also got a chance to meet up with my friend Tracey for an hour or two in the afternoon.

Saturday morning Curtis, Isaac and I, joined by Curtis' dad, left for home. Curtis' brother and family stayed until Sunday morning. This time we traveled straight through, arriving home around 10 pm. We encountered some snow on the roads on the return trip, mostly between McBride and home. Sunday was our day of rest.
