A sad day today....we say good-bye to our traveling companions Frank and Barb....we have had so much fun together and so many laughs and many great memories....hate to part w/ good company but they need to get back to Olympia, WA to help out w/ some grandkids and we have to get back to Spokane by the 20th to get RV back.
We are headed down Hwy 16 south on the west side of the Canadian Rockies. First part of day not too scenic till we reached the mountains. Then it was GREAT! Went to Rearguard Falls which is as far East as the salmon run....pretty amazing at that....it is pretty far inland. It is a beautiful waterfall. We watched some rafters going down the river and they had portaged around the falls so we got to watch them lower the raft into the river (quite interesting as the raft had to be lowered about 50 or more feet). I bet it was a great trip....Has really warmed up too...about 90 today.
Found RV park at Valemount (Canoe RV Park) and got a site....first site was too sunny so moved...however 2nd site only had 15 amp hookup and running a/c kept blowing it....so we moved back to the first site w/ 30 amp hookup....I had headache and took a nap for a couple of hours and felt better. Had some leftovers for dinner.
Dogs have really slowed down since it has gotten hot....they were full of energy in the cool weather....Jerry took dogs out for a run in the pasture next to the campground. It was also right at the river which was running full and fast....in fact we have seen evidence of lots of flooding and high water in B.C. Some of the highways were closed when we were on our way up.
Walked down to camp showers to check them out but decided against it...I walked into the ladies shower and there was a husband and wife in there ---they were German I think, but I didn't feel like sharing w/ men....will just shower in RV. More later....
