I have returned from Calgary.
I was hoping to say that the most interesting thing that happened on the way back was that I learned that dancing to the Macarena while driving is a bad idea. Well, a poor idea. It is still fun.
More traumatic though was the discovery that the bone-dry pavement had actually become quite slippery half an hour outside of Edmonton. Traffic was slowing up ahead so I started braking. That’s when I learned there was no traction. Luckily I had left enough room between me and the car ahead. No accident.
Others weren’t so lucky and there was blocked traffic outside of Leduc. I tried going into Leduc to get around it, but I will also chalk that up as a bad idea.
