    leaving vancouver

    30. juli 2018, Canada ⋅ ☀️ 35 °C

    as usual left a day later than we should have. Had to finish off some gardening first....weeding was needed so we could find the beets and carrots.....

    after we left hope, just before the hope side traffic came to a halt after one of the long slow climbs up the hill.... 2 helicopters were dumping water on a fire at the side of the road. We think it was a vehicle fire. Thankfully they got it out pretty quickly and we were able to continue our journey.

    First night Manning park, Coldsprings campground. The trees are getting bigger from a few years back when they and to cut down so many due to the beetle kill of the lodgepole pine. It was a coolish night, but pleasant.

  • lunch at Keremeos

    31. juli 2018, Canada ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

    Great Fruit at this time of year in Keremeos! The peaches are delicious, almost as good as the ones we had at a farmers market in Grand Forks years ago. Our stop at Sanderson Farms where they have picnic tables under the plum trees out back. Sanderson Farms also has great Pakora and Samosa's. Lovely lunch.

    Unfortunately there are fires burning just behind the mountains to the south of the town. So it is quite smokey.
