Crossing Alberta well north of Edmonton we keep thinking the rape/canola fields will abate yet at times the yellow stretches almost to the horizon. Knowing this is the last night prior to the Canadian long weekend (July 1 is Canada Day) we are not worried about finding a place to stay tonight. We pull into a municipal park in McLennan, Alberta hoping there was room. The campground is completely empty. The bathrooms are closed with the reason for the closure stated as Covid related. An excuse not to worry about them. We find a shaded site with electric for $25 Canadian. It’s a deal despite no washrooms. Our plan for tomorrow is to reach Mile Zero of the Alaskan Highway.
