Assiniboia, SK to Calgary, AB
7.0hrs and 705kms
Departing Assiniboia, SK we continued west to Calgary for a visit and overnight stop with Jan's Brother & Wife. We decided to head southeast of Calgary to avoid the rush hour madness of going through the city. This route would take us through Bragg Creek, AB.

We have been making good progress on this trip! The motorhome has been running well and no problems with the exception of the water pump. Although we are now not sure if it is the pump or the pick-up line in the water tank. Seems the pump runs fine if the water tank is 50% or more full, but when it is below 50% the pump starts acting up. Maybe air is getting in the lines; we do have to trouble shoot to determine if this is the correct evaluation.
We spent a nice evening in Calgary and only one more day till we are home.
