August 11 – Today’s drive was to Prince George, BC. It wasn’t a very long drive and the campground is outside of town, which is the norm! Half of the spaces are pull thru and the big rigs like us got those. There are areas of trees that are dividers between the sites. They are all full hook ups but we were warned to fill our water tanks before arriving as the water has a strong smell and taste. So all Bill had to do was hook up the electric.
There wasn’t anything of
particular interest to see in town so we just hung out and chatted with our
fellow campers. Tomorrow morning are the
good byes and that makes me very sad.
Marty gave me a big hug and said he’d see us in Florida as he volunteers
at Crystal River working with the manatees.
Dave and Laurie are also wintering in Florida over by Arcadia, so we
will see them as well. Some of the
couples winter in Texas so there’s a chance we will go there for a week, who
knows!
We had dinner out as a group
and the food was expensive but excellent.
I think everyone enjoyed their meal and the chance to spend some time
together in a peaceful setting. I can’t
complain that I might not see them again as it was a real blessing to meet them
all in the first place. Bill and I agree
it was worth every penny to make this trip and meet such awesome people in the
process.
The down side is we need to
have body work done on the truck and the motorhome. Those roads are a mess in many places and the
bumping and dips, yikes – but we made it out in one rickety piece!
We do plan to stop on
September 13 in Belton, MO to see Mike and Barb as it’s on our route. Hoping it times out that we can meet for
lunch somewhere for a couple of hours.
Sadly the best part of our
summer is over, now for the long ride home!
