The Great Canadian Barn Dance – southern Alberta







This, to date, has been everybody’s favorite campground, even without full hook-ups.

The setting helps: there is no town of consequence for miles around, the skies are beautiful, the Montana Rockies loom up from practically no foothills, and the mosquitoes innocuous.

This campground is run by the Kunkel (?) family. Both nights they served up a buffet of roast beef, chicken, coleslaw, baked potato, beans, rolls, and desert. After dinner three generations of the family sang and played classic country western music. Two children (18 and 10), their mom and dad, granddad from each side of the family, and the brother of one of the granddads. All are skilled musicians. Well worth whatever we paid.
