We left Castlegar about 8:30 AM (9:30 Alberta time) and headed back to Alberta. Our original plan was to stop south of Calgary somewhere but, as is usual for us, when we get that close to home we just "go for it".
We stopped for lunch in Fernie where Caro picked up some bagels at a shop that Lisa likes to go to (and Caro "loves" their bagels so we picked up a dozen). We also bought some salami so that is what we ate as we carried on.
Once back in Alberta I filled up with "cheap" gas (I think it was "only" about $1.85 litre).
Just outside past the Crowsnest Pass area we took highway 22 north and then cut over towards Nanton. It is a beautiful drive (even though we had bad weather).
Caro took over driving at Nanton as six hours driving is generally my limit.
We stopped in Red Deer at Famoso Pizza and made it home at 9:30 PM. The non-stop driving time is ten hours so we had two hours of breaks during the day.
The Escape made it home okay and the weird vibration didn't get worse. The vehicle is going to the mechanic next week.
