How Different This Drive Is

How different this drive is going from Dawson Creek towards Edmonton in comparison to the Cassiar Hwy. This drive is through farm lands with wide open spaces using trees as either wind breaks or property division lines. We even saw a Caribou farm.  Beautiful too, just very different from mountainous terrain we came from.       More towns are present with less miles between them.      Can you tell what this town is called?Yes, we had to stop in Beaver, just for a quick shot of the towns mascot.

Talk about how different things are, we are driving due south now and we can really see the difference in the daylight. Not only have we gone through one time zone change just leaving Alaska but another will come today. It will get dark about 9:30. EEEK! Yuk! Ooey! 24 hours of daylight was to much, but I don’t want dark at 8pm either. Sure would be nice if it got dark at 10 or 11 pm and light again at 5 or 6 am. It will hit us hard when we get home in October when it is dark at 6pm. When it is dark, I am tired. I like the energy of the light. With it getting dark earlier I can now remove all of the aluminum foil off the bedrooms windows and skylights. That was so helpful to block all the light when it was light all night.
