Fairmont Hot Springs

We left Canmore, Alberta, Canada this morning and after crossing the Continental Divide and driving about 3 hours, ended up in Fairmont Hot Springs, British Columbia, Canada.  The drive was great, but we encountered a good bit of smoke from the forest fires in the area.  We saw a group of firefighters along the road and even a "dump tank" (a big portable above the ground swimming pool that firefighters use to store water).  I also had a scare when we pulled over at a rest stop and when I went to get back in my truck, the doors  were locked and my keys were in the ignition.  Luckily, RoxAnne had a spare set of keys in the camper.  Something bad happened to RoxAnne today.  She had a side of a tooth crack off.  When we got to the campground, we started calling some dentists.  Luckily, we found one that had a cancellation and they were able to fit her into their schedule this afternoon.  It was about 1-1/2 hours away, but the good news is that they were able to repair the tooth (at least temporarily).  Our campground is really nice.  It is nestled in the Rocky Mountains.  It has hot springs, along with many other amenities such as golfing, zip-lines, restaurants, horseback riding, etc.
