July 15 2011 Turner Valley Alberta

heading to town of Frank
Friday July 15 2011
Town of Frank is buried under a rock slide early 1900's still under there
scenery changes around every corner
Left Mount Fernie at 10:00am.  Still on following hwy #3.  Today we go thru Crows Nest Pass.  We were stopped in traffic for paving for a while so we got our books and were reading.  Hank looked up and realized the traffic had moved and we were still reading, had to hurry up and catch up, we were holding everyone up as it was down to one lane for both directions of traffic, pretty funny!!!!!  We got to the Alberta border at 10:45am.  We drove thru the town of Frank (well what is left of Frank).  There was a rock slide here, a long time ago, that covered the town with huge rocks, took some pics, the town is still buried under there, wow!  We had an appt in Pincher Creek, GM dealer for truck, at 2:30 so headed there, we were early so unhooked and went for lunch.  They did diagnostics on truck and changed fuel filter but couldn't find anything else wrong.  We left there to head for Susie's and 20 minutes away from the GM dealer the truck started doing it again, so $200 later it is still not fixed.   We got to Sue and Dale's about 5:00, just stayed there for the night, everyone was tired, we will go camping at the gravel pits tomorrow.
