Hi Brad, Thanks for the hello!! Just pulled in today from a 7 month trip, 7 weeks in the Maritimes then the balance of the winter in the southern US. Total miles somewhere around 11,500. Haven't added up the fuel yet but the Alladin showed average mileage at 8.6 MPH(US gallons) All in all not bad, average speed between 58 and 62 MPH this is a cummins ISL 400. Took DW and I about 3 1/2hrs to clean out all the stuff that we had on board. Looking at all the stuff we did today I think I need a rest. Are you in the east? We are in Cochrane, a small town 20K west of Calgary. Great place to live, where are you? Always good to talk to other Canadians.

Hello Don Barber. Very Good to have you with us. Im in Port Hope Ontario, 'bout 75 miles East of Toronto. Your trip sounds Great, would like to hear more of your adventures.
I have in fact been to Cochrane AB. In '95 we stayed in a park set up by the Kiwanas Club just outside town, beside the Bow River. Not sure if the park is still there or not. We still talk about the beautiful little "CowBoy" town. We went into a leather shop in town, bought cowboy hats, then took the train into the Stampede grounds. We had three great days of good times there, before we drove on to Banff and the West coast.
The memories are making me want to go back....Brad
