Oliver and I took a trip to EMPRESS Alberta to visit Brock this past week....we had no idea what we were in for! With a population of maybe 25, 20 of who Oliver and I probably met while exploring the town, Rattle snakes everywhere, and about 15 rig workers in trailers set in the middle of nowhere.... We did do some exploring, we laughed a lot at the gas station containing one pump only and if you can imagine 15 rigged up trucks waiting in line for gas heading home for days off I am sure you would laugh as much as we did...Oliver tempted fate with rattle snakes and ran into the grass for a quick shot which I took as quickly as possible ran in grabed him and ran back out! We were dissapointed to see that church was not open for mass the whole time we were there, Oliver got so upset he threw a rock at it and just missed the window. We drove 40 min to the closest grocery store where Oliver made friends with the old lady working there who thought he was the cutest thing she had ever encountered.....three days of this and all we have to say is "wow, that was an experience!"
We were so happy to see Brock for a few days though...we miss him and wish he would come home soon!
