QC2BC15: The Final “Mile” (2020/08/05) The trip to our house in Vancouver is less than an hour away from Fort Langley, so we had time for a visit and even a trip to the local ice cream store. We left … Continue reading →

QC2BC14: To the Fraser Delta (2020/08/04) Shuswap Country After a leisurely and pleasant breakfast with Gary and Wilma, we rejoined Highway #1 West. We passed the small United Church which had served as the overnight stop for so many hitchhikers … Continue reading →

QC2BC13: Over 2 Mountain Passes (2020/08/03) I love the road from Canmore to Banff for its gentle introduction to the mountain world. It takes us through evergreen forests, ice-cold rivers with patches of snow in the peaks above showing the … Continue reading →

QC2BC12: The Rockies (2020/08/02) We pulled out of our Medicine Hat campsite onto the highway, past the malls of the city, and the world’s largest teepee (according to the tourist signs), dipped down into the lovely river valley and continued … Continue reading →

QC2BC11: 2020/08/01: Qu’Appelle Valley to Medicine Hat The Qu’Appelle Valley is amazing because it contrasts so much with the prairie region which it traverses. After eroding a beautiful valley, the river now meanders lazily through it–creating the occasional oxbow lake … Continue reading →

Fri. July 24, 2020 I got up early the next morning to finalize my packing to find that Fran had been up most of the night doing the same. She headed off to her visit with Francine as planned with … Continue reading →

Thur. July 23, 2020 When I woke about 5:00 there were signs that Fran had spent only a little time in bed. Even so, she soon up to finish a few tasks before the 9:00 arrival of the movers. We … Continue reading →

Wed. July 22, 2020. Tomorrow the movers arrive but from the look of the house, we are unlikely to be ready. There are plenty of boxes and items for them to pack, but our attention to the kitchen items keeps … Continue reading →
