Going Nomad |
Two weeks in Calgary and my days have started to feel long and lonely. The sun rises late and sets early, so the days are dark too. And cold. But today I took the truck and went for a drive, felt good to be on the road again and feel free. Horseshoe Canyon, my destination, turned out to be closed, and instead I drove through the badlands. The landscapes here are incredible; wheat fields as far as the eye can see and massive skies. Gorgeous. I did not find the "scenic" dinosaur drive scenic, so I drove back to Drumheller, bought a single beer, and, as a good ol' redneck Albertan, parked the truck on a dirt road, and drank the beer while, obviously, listening to blue grass. I did not get to where I had set out to go, but, as the song went, it was good enough.
