We had intended to hit the road at dawn today so as to avoid the heat.
Instead we slept in.
It was a very hot day, though a strong wind from the South cooled us slightly. It also slowed us down, but as our road veered from an Easterly route to a more North-Easterly one, we picked up some speed.
We stopped in Swift Current for a mid-day rest (read: siesta). We relaxed under some Elm trees beside the creek that gives Swift Current its name. The current didn't seem at all swift... but it was all still very nice.
We continued on down the road... There may or may not have been more flats on the way.
We found some cold drinks in Morse, found a place on the shore of Reed Lake to set up a tent, and called it a night.
