Day 17 Taber to Medicine Hat

Heavy dew over night in Taber so tents put away wet. Not a real big deal as they dry up really quick next day. Got out of town at 7:20, not too bad.  The shoulders for the first 40 klm were really nice, fresh pavement.  Bit of a head breeze which kept us below 25 kph.

By Bow Island we stopped at Erna's Berry Farm for lunch.  At 10 am.  Best BBQ burgers ever, Alberta Grade A beef along with Saskatoon berries, muffins, pastries. Then you have to bike again.
The wind then shifted to a S wind, meaning cross wind for us. Not bad but a little tiring. Could get back up to 25 anyhow.

Came past a mint field by Bow Island. We could smell it as we biked by. It's used for making gum, peppermints, that sort of thing.  Getting closer to Medicine Hat we stopped at Kramer's greenhouse
for a tour and some cukes.

Was able to meet a number of relatives in both Taber and the Hat including Jesse K who happened to come by a SAG stop while I was there.  I heard someone ask "is Uncle Randy here?"  I am currently at Richard and Margaret Klok's home for a little visit.

Got to Medicine Hat Christian School 2:15. Totals for day 125 klm, 5:00 hours cycling, 25.1 klm avg.
