Sorry, we didn't post immediately, but we arrived home extremely tired. The ride down the mountains and the smoke from the wild fires, along with a ferocious electical storm took a lot out of us oldies. Today we are watching on TV as they evacuate people from Quesnel, which is where we camped just a few nights ago. The entire central and northern part of the province is under heavy smoke, as is the City of Vancouver. Thankfully here on Gabriola, the air is clean and the skies only slightly hazy. We are very grateful for getting home all in one piece. It turned out to be more of an adventure than we anticipated, and nothing really turned out the way we planned, but we loved it all and enjoyed sharing it with all of you. Now that we have seen the far north of our country, we are going to do future exploring in the Fraser Valley and northern Vancouver Island, places that we can access in a day or two. In the meantime, we have lots to catch up on at home, and preparations are already in the works for the departure to Mexico the end of October.
Thanks to all our friends and family for hanging in with us through the Northern Excursion of 2018.
