On the road again….finally!

 

Just a short post to let you all know we are back.  It’s been a crummy year but we hope to leave all that behind us.  We are presently in Prince George and will continue on to Cache Creek and then on to Kelowna (all in B.C.)

We are trying a different way of travel this year and hope that it makes it more enjoyable.  We are heading south early and plan to do some holidaying in good weather.  We usually head south in October and hit snow and cold in many places in B.C. and the USA. 

So…here’s what we are doing.  We will stay in Kelowna until Monday morning and then head south into to the USA.  We’ll travel south through, Washington, Idaho and Nevada until we arrive in Alamo, Nevada.   At that point we will head east into Utah where we plan to have a look at Zion National Park, possibly Bryce Canyon and then on to the Grand Canyon.  It should be warm at this time of the year and we will ride the bike where we can.  As these areas are at very high elevations it is always too cold when we travel south in November.    We will end up in Phoenix where we will store the rig in a friend’s RVpark and then fly home on the 11th of October for three weeks.   I’ll clean up my gardens, Eric will service machinery and then we’ll shut down the house (drain water lines etc.) before we fly back to Phoenix on the 3rd of November.  From there we will journey south to Mazatlan where we will spend the winter, sure hope it all works out! 

This way we’ll get a chance to see areas of the USA that we usually can’t because it’s too cold. 

Stay posted…..

P.S.  we are thrilled to be on the road again.
