8-22-2013 Onwards to Prince George and civilization

With roads improving we push on to Prince George about 400 miles. The farther south we drove the weather improved and temperature began to warm up. We did hit some rain along the way but all in all it was uneventful.










We traveled through some of the forestry, farm lands and agriculture areas.

When we arrived at the RV site the BEE LAZEE we were pretty much wasted. One does not realize how taxing driving a motorhome with tow car can be until you arrive at your destination. When you are driving it takes most all of your attention and there is not much time to let your guard down or catch a cat nap.

Once we were on Highway 16 we had cell phone service. Sharon’s phone began dinging out of control. We thought that we had won the lottery!  We stopped at a road side park to grab some lunch and get in touch with the family and friends that were checking in with us.  Although we were deep into the wilderness the world still revolves and with all this technology it’s hard to leave it all behind.  I must say that life is much simpler without all the static.  You are not aware of all the meaningless clutter that goes on around you.  No world crisis to get your blood pressure up and you don’t have to be concerned about what your inept government is screwing up at the moment.   I’ll most likely get a call from the NSA for making such a derogatory statement.  Hello? Are you listening or reading my email?

I do not know where this will all end up but it is most discouraging.  It’s becoming most pathetic.

What I do know for sure is that when we arrived in Prince George there was a rainbow awaiting us.  That brings a little hope and encouragement that someday the world might be a better place for all.


Somewhere over the rainbow is a land of love, joy and hope.
