2019 summer vacation: Day nine - From Saskatoon to Vegreville

Dear readers of my blog!

On the ninth day of my epic summer vacation, I drove from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan to Vegreville, Alberta, situated about one hour east of Edmonton. The weather was great in the morning and afternoon but a storm with heavy rain took place in the early evening. Several aggressive insects bit me quite heavily after the storm but I was able to recover with a good night of sleep in a cozy hotel.
