Welcome to the photo blog for David and Janet Elmore. You can find pages full of photos from our trips with Vanessa or Savanna (our van-based RV) and pages that are a record of events with lots of photos. Many of our travel photos are connected to a map at the bottom of our posts so you can see where we went and can look for photos at specific places.

Below is a list of recent posts.

Kickapoo River

Sat 9-Aug-2014 Travel, Wisconsin |

With Steven and his family we canoed for about 5 hours on the Kickapoo River. Steve and Sarah had brought their trusty Grumman canoe, Magnolia, and we rented a canoe and tube from Drifters, one of several...

Wildcat Mountain

Fri 8-Aug-2014 Travel, Wisconsin |

Again headed south in the morning with a stop at the grocery store to add to our fresh vegetable supply. After a quick stop for a picnic lunch in Black River Falls, we found Wildcat Mountain State Park where...

Wisconsin

Thu 7-Aug-2014 Minnesota, Travel, Wisconsin |

Today was just a quiet day of driving through MN toward Duluth, then down Route 53 into WI. We crossed the Mississippi River for the second time, so we are now on the east side – our side. Stopped for...

Bemidji

Wed 6-Aug-2014 Minnesota, Travel |

Janet has always been interested in visiting Bemidji, MN, but only interested enough to go if it was on a convenient route when traveling. David had worked with undergraduates from Bemidji State on research...

Manitoba

Mon 4-Aug-2014 Manitoba, Travel |

Saskatoon

Sun 3-Aug-2014 Saskatchewan, Travel |

Today we just drove a short way, about 80 miles to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. We needed a “housekeeping day” and the city seemed like a good place. We found a lovely campground with good Wi-Fi and a...

Edmonton

Sat 2-Aug-2014 Alberta, Travel |

Today we traveled Route 16 from west of Edmonton to east of Edmonton. The road, except for brief times when towns are near the road, is a wide four-lane divided highway with at-grade road crossings. The...

Icefields Again

Fri 1-Aug-2014 Alberta, Travel |

The weather started out a little hazy, but as we drove into the park, it improved until by afternoon we had sun and high clouds. Coming back to Jasper was a great idea except for the fact that it was so...

Jasper Again

Thu 31-Jul-2014 Alberta, Travel |

There are basically three routes to Edmonton from Dawson Creek. The old northern-route (Route 2), the new central-route (Route 43) built in 1955, or the scenic southern-route (Route 40). We decided on...
