Valley View, Alberta - August 9, 2010

Our distance today was the longest so far on this trip. 694 km = 431 miles. Since we could keep up a good speed we got to Valley View in under 8 hours. On our way up to Alaska we had stopped here with the Griffins for lunch and gas. This time we stayed at a new motel, Western Valley Inn. After grabbing a sandwich for supper we went to a gas station for a fill-up. Full service, no extra charge.
Donna asked where we could find a carwash in town and the attendent directed us up a dirt street to an automatic, 24-hour carwash. OK, we drove up to the building, and the sign directed us around back where we used a credit card to pay for the $15.00 deluxe touchless wash and wax. Everything went all right but the van will need special attention when we get home to get the shine back.
