Up before 7am once again, and
hit the road right away. This highway 33 is quite a windy road with some steep
sections as well, so it's nicer for us to drive on it when there's no traffic
because we tend to average about 70 km/h or less. It's a cloudy

Middle of nowhere...near Beaverdell
Friday November 9...7:00pm
Sure enough, we didn't need the furnace last night. Woke up and it was still 9 degrees inside. We're at the point now that if it's over 5 degrees inside when we wake up, then we're doing just fine! Got up and drove the 20 minutes or so back

Syringa Provincial Park...near Castlegar
Thursday November 8...7:15pm
Today was a fun day! We got up fairly early and hit the road right away. Drove for an hour or so and then stopped for coffee and breakfast. As we entered Creston, B.C., we noticed the sign advertising tours at the Columbia Brewing Company...the makers of Kokanee Beer!

Near Cranbrook
Wednesday November 7...9:00pm
When we woke up this morning, it was already 5 degrees outside. So after breakfast we decided it would be a good day for me to fix the furnace. The RV park we were at didn't mind if we did some repairs, plus the place where I bought the switch was

Fernie, B.C.
Tuesday November 6...10:00pm
We were only a few minutes from the Frank Slide, and so after a quick breakfast we headed to the interpretive centre they built at the site of the disaster. If you don't know about the Frank Slide...it's when millions of tons of limestone rock came

Waterton Lakes National Park
Sunday November 4...8:10pm
What strange weather we had last night. It was supposed to go down to about 2 degrees so we left the electric heater on. We woke up around 2am to a loud crash that sounded very close to us. There was a lot of wind, yet it was 22 degrees inside

Woke up this morning to a deer standing out in our campsite. They don't seem to be very shy, that's for sure.

Got up and after something to eat we headed for a laundromat. We were pretty much the only ones there except for the woman working there. Nice enough morning, so I took Whiskey for a walk while Ruth sorted out the laundry.
