Yeah, well, we kind of chickened out on that Route 20 drive from Bella Coola to Williams Lake thing! The next door neighbor told us this morning he punctured two tires the last time he drove that stretch. He was, until recently, a wilderness guilde. We've been waffling on this part of our plan for a week now, and this convinced us to change our plans. So we went back to the drawing board and booked the Inside Passage instead, from Port Hardy all the way up to Prince Rupert. For a virtual tour of the ferry from Port Hardy to Prince Rupert, go to Queen of The North. So now we still leave Port Hardy July 7, but heading for Prince Rupert -- an 18 hour journey. While we're in the neighborhood, we figured we ... read more

Well we had a much better time on our second outing. We spent nearly a week May 28 to June 2nd. We went to an Ontario Provincial Park called Presqu'ile. We stayed at site 114 in The Pines. There was electricity on the site, but no water. We could have filled our holding tank at the dump station, but we chose not to. There was a tap near the site, and also flush toiletes. There were free showers also within walking distance. We can't say enough good things about this camp ground. During our stay it was very quiet there, only a few campers and most of them were seniors. The bathrooms were clean and tidy, with hand dryers so no need for the paper towels. The garbabe and reclycling drop offs were also nearby. There ... read more

All my bags are packed (pretty much) I'm ready to go (almost) I'm typing here inside my door I hate to let you know I'm saying bye. All right, enough cheesiness. It's been a LONG year, it's been a good year, and in many ways, it's been a growing up year (although I wish the growth was a physical one as well as an emotional one). After the craziness of the last few weeks, I'm looking forward to the semi-controlled chaos that is South-East Asia, and seeing if UBC was wrong about my rural suitability. ;-) I'm typing this on the eve of my departure early tomorrow morning, so I wish you all good adventures this summer wherever you may be. I'll be sure to remember to drink bottled water, remember to open my eyes, and ... read more
