A Rainy Day, July 14

Upper Kananaskis Lake

It would be foolish to complain about the weather, since we have had almost continual hot sunny days since we started on our trip to the mountains.  Today started out cloudy, but still warm, so we washed a few clothes and hung them on the line.  In the morning we played a game of Scrabble, which Enid won, then read until lunch. 

After lunch we drove to Lower and Upper Kananaskis lakes, along the way taking a tour through some of the other campgrounds.  They were all quite full, and they don’t seem to have running water, so aren’t as nice as the one we are in.

We walked around a bit at the lakes, but it started to sprinkle rain as we were getting ready to leave the spillway area of Upper Kananaskis lake.  We drove to the start of the Rawson Trail and walked a bit but as it started to rain quite a bit more we turned back and drove back to our campsite.  Our clothes were still hanging on the line, but as they were a bit under the trees didn’t get too wet.  We took them and hung up a line inside the trailer. 

It didn’t rain continually, but sprinkled a lot, with occasional heavier rains for the rest of the day.  We just stayed inside, read, played another scrabble game, and watched a movie for the evening.
