To MULE DEER 49N 120W

With some too and fro-ing, we are loaded and ready to go. Strangely, while packing for a voyage of indeterminate length, the biggest effort was leaving Trethewey in a state which we wanted to find on our return.
How to organize this blog? Well, start with a Picture:

Ready to Rock'n'Roll N49 03.179' W122 19.581'

Odometer reads 139,980 (that's miles folks!) and we resolutely start moving at 14:46. Would have been earlier but the Canucks took 5 innings to win the Western Conference.

Gas at Hope. Fueling this EsDora is going to cost at least twice per day as the old one. This will be the last fuel cost comment. We are priviledged to have the discretionary funds to attempt this. Sorry about the inheritance kids!

Along about six, we arrive at Mule Deer Campground in Manning Park. The Similkameen River is boisterous. We pick a site which is more likely to be undercut than to flood.

Nature Note: Three separate black bears were foraging along the way through Manning, but the discovery of the day was imbedded in the pipes just behind the Ladies Flush Potty.

The art of travelling together seems to involve compromise.....
