Oh Canada

getting ready to leave the beautiful province of British Columbia, heading for Idaho presently in Creston, B.C.   We had a lovely if not challenging trip across the Crowsnest hwy #3..a few to many summits to summit and detoured via Nelson across Kootenay lake and down to Creston.  As beautiful as Nelson is we probably couldnt afford to live there very expensive and somewhat exclusive.  The ride along the east side of Kootenay lake was peaceful, and secluded.  

Weve really enjoyed B.C although have found it to be a little expensive and more so in the prime destinations..the price of beauty.  We met a number of bikers in Hope B.C and they either died on the passes or a bear ate them as we havent seen any since.  We also met a group of "hippies"!! real live hippies walking to Ottowa with  kids and dogs in tow.  I asked them what were they going to say.  Something like " we want to be free!!"  and then they were gong to dance on the lawn.  I must be getting old because the message seemed kind of vague for me.

Anyhow we are well although tired and always hungry.  Looking at adjusting our route a little to have more R @R on the coast before we fly home july8.  We will keep you updated as long as the freindly librairies  are available..

USA bound with one very large box of RED ROSE tea!!

love Sal
