Well I hope you come back too!  I haven't spent to much time around Crossfield, I'm usually in to much of a hurry to get up by Edmonton.  I imagine a drive from PA would be full of fantastic views.  I keep telling myself I have to visit the 'badlands' again. That would be around Drumheller.  I happen to like that landscape because it's so different.  The foothills around here are great for hiking and camping etc but I like the desolation of arid country for some reason. Hoodoos, and snakes and dinosaur bones and stuff.  Funny that you're from PA, I seemed to have run in to 3-4 people from Allentown in the last month or so.  Maybe it's a sign to go visit.

Well, if you ever do decide to visit PA be sure to let me know and maybe we can meet up.  I am about 60 east of Pittsburgh, a little bit of everything around here.
