Hope the weather gets better though, much the same as what you have there, miserable!<br /><br />Sam and Donna...I think we would be lucky to find a bottle of wine between $6-8 even at a winery. We went and made a batch of wine which will give us about 23L for about $110, that is about the cheapest way to get wine here.<br /><br />Bob...You're right it isn't a job, but it is like a diary for us and if you miss a day we feel we missed a little bit of our lives. We do enjoy going back over some of the posts now and then to see what we were doing a year or two (or more) before.<br /><br />Dale and Mary-Lou...Thanks, we will. Hope you stay warm.<br /><br />Malone...Our suggestion to you is buy extra wine in the USA and pay the extra taxes, it is still cheaper than buying it in Canada, even at the wineries. Hope you enjoy your travels in the western provinces, they are so beautiful.<br /><br />Contessa...Thanks Contessa. I don't know where the cheaper varieties were, because we didn't find any out West when we went through. Even at the wineries/vineyards the cheapest we could find were still well over $10 for a 750ml bottle. Hard to compare when you can buy a box of 5L for $14 dollars or so in the USA.<br /><br />George and Suzie...Safe travels back to Canada. Don't forget to fill up with propane too!<br /><br />Chuck and Anneke...Yup, it will be awhile before we have to drive that far that quickly again. Your funnies make up for not writing...but you are right, it's not a crime, we just enjoy doing it.<br /><br />Kevin, Ruth and WhiskeyKevin Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05795747155781311686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-46509313347023358972011-04-16T20:33:01.007-04:002011-04-16T20:33:01.007-04:00A long trip done, enjoy being home.

There are daily bloggers not worth reading and sporadic bloggers that make every word a delight. Interesting information about the cost of wine and beer and gasoline. We will be traveling through four western provinces this summer so may have to skip the evening glass of wine!Sue Malonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00332448503740101970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-84868199543255911702011-04-16T11:34:18.072-04:002011-04-16T11:34:18.072-04:00Well we are living in our 5th wheel at the moment ...Well we are living in our 5th wheel at the moment and except for some extra propane we love it.

My wife was never much of a "camper" in any sense of the word, which is probably why our first ever RV was a class A motorhome. <br /><br />Happy Travels.<br /><br />Bob.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523653271715366168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-11239077547824696382011-04-16T10:30:58.955-04:002011-04-16T10:30:58.955-04:00So good to see your safely ho,e with family.

I'll think of you Kevin when I am checking out at shop & Save and pay my $13.47US for a 30 pack of Miller High life Light,$11.47 every couple of weeks when it is on sale.Your wine is out of sight, Donna likes an occasional Zinfadel but we never pay more than about $6-8 dollars a bottle for a local brand, lots of wineries on the way to Augusta MO where Nicole goes to school, if you visit someday we will go to a couple. I think though if we could have health care like you folks I wouldn't mind a little more taxes. We always prided our selves here in the States on having the best politicians money could buy, You would think if they weren't smart enough to come up with a health care system for us they would copy Canada's. Who would complain? Keep an eye on Whiskey, she is just getting old but I know you guys want to get as long as you can out of her, We were like that with duke before he passed. Give that little guy a hug for all of us if Rigg's was there he would be getting a lick for sure. Be safe out there.

I am looking forward to your explorations of the area, it’s a place I have never been. So glad that Whiskey is doing so well! Please say hi to Ruth for us. Its cold here in NY today, feels very winterish (yuck). <br /><br />John<br /><a href="http://relaxedrush.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">relaxedrush.blogspot.com</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13126827057034325406noreply@blogger.com
