August 25 We're Back !!!

Well we got home, (Surrey) a week ago Friday (August 14), not feeling very well. We had left Stewart Tuesday and made a quick dash for home. We were both down with good head colds and not feeling like doing much of anything. As it turned out, as we couldn't shake the cold, we both went to the doctor on Saturday and found out we had bronchitis. Today we are feeling better and I thought I had better finish off the blog for our holidays up north.

On leaving Stewart, we traveled to Burns Lake, BC and spend the night in the city park. A very nice idea, to have RV sites right in the park. ( I heard Herbies family had a lot to do with this idea, so that when friends and family came to visit, they would have a place to stay, without taking up all the back yard and street parking, at the Conet house). Well the trip wouldn't be complete unless we had something else go wrong. We woke up Thursday morning and had another soft tire on the trailer. Off to the Tire shop we went and sure enough, a nail in the tire. If one needs tire service in Burns Lake, BC, go to Tirecraft, right on the main highway in town. The people there are very professional, friendly and don't want to charge you a arm and leg, just to fix a flat.

After the flat was fixed we were on the road, stopped in Prince George and had lunch with Herb and family and back heading south by 2pm. Stayed the night in a little RV Park, just north of McClease Lake. Up, had breakfast, and on the road, stopped in Boston Bar for pie, to which they had none. we made it to Hope early. We stayed in Hope as I wanted to give the trailer a good bath before we put the trailer in the RV Park. We got into Surrey by mid afternoon, set up the trailer, put the slides out and went to bed. We stayed there for the better of the week and finally got out today.

Where will our next adventure be, only time will tell, but for now, got to get the RV all fixed up, so it looks pretty when we leave again.
