(written October 24th from notes taken previously. Good crap, I'm so far behind. 😬) First thing after getting up and doing normal morning things was to get our little butts over to the local visitor center to learn about the camping laws. In the states, we were able to just park off of Forest roads … Continue reading 2024-10-09 (Wednesday) — Wells Gray, Provincial Park

(written on the 22nd from notes taken previously. Originally, I had part of this written as having happened on the 7th, but I don't remember at this point. My notes say fixed morning of the 8th... so... I'm moving all that stuff about finding and fixing to the 8th. Maybe happened part on one day … Continue reading 2024-10-08 (Tuesday) — Baking Canada

(written on October 17th from notes taken previously) We woke up in front of my mom's Friend's place, and I just stayed in the van while she visited with her friends for a couple hours or so. They knew me as a little child, but I never really knew them even though they were friends … Continue reading 2024-10-07 (Monday) — Baker’s Gas

(written on October 17th from notes taken previously) I woke up later than I think I have pretty much the entire trip so far. I would wake up and then go back to sleep, and then wake up and go back to sleep, finally getting up sometime a bit after 10 :00, I think. Originally, … Continue reading 2024-10-06 (Sunday) — Lincoln Park

(written October 17th from notes taken previously) Well, remember how we crossed our fingers and hoped we weren't going to be bothered at the Love's Travel Stop? Yeah... So there was this security guard that kind of looked a little sketchy Dad that my mom noticed before we went to bed, and come about, oh... … Continue reading 2024-10-05 (Saturday) — No Love’s and Leslie’s

(written October 16th from notes taken previously) We woke up to a clearing in front of us that had been logged a bit and a clearing behind us that had been logged a little bit, and we were on this little road between the two. Output Road in quotes because it was just a connecting … Continue reading 2024-10-04 (Friday) — Hoh, Hoh, Hurricane

(written on the 16th from notes taken previously) I failed to mention that the gas station we stayed at was a Love's. I should probably give them some love because sometimes Love's isn't very friendly. After waking up, we drove over to the Denny's in Centralia so that my mom could visit with one of … Continue reading 2024-10-03 (Thursday) — Son of a… Beach!

(written on October 14th from notes taken previously) We woke up this morning to exactly what I was hoping for. We had been stymied in all of our efforts the night before to find a place to build a fire by the river, but my last hope was that we might be able to find … Continue reading 2024-10-02 (Wednesday) — She’s a Tease

(written on October 13th from notes taken previously) When we woke up this morning, we found that the campsite that we had chosen had also been well used by others. Unfortunately, that meant that there was trash absolutely everywhere. So much, in fact, that I had run over somebody's plastic toy shovel, amidst the rest … Continue reading 2024-10-01 (Tuesday) — Ape Crazy

(written on the 13th from notes taken previously) Tish was working today, as it was Monday, and Craig as well, though he was working from home. Thanks to both of them for letting us do our laundry! 🙏 A big thanks also for shower. That's actually The first hot water shower I've had in months. … Continue reading 2024-09-30 (Monday) — The Things That Matter Most
