A day to remember!


While Lars was putting in the fuel pump at our temp. residance at the Western Camp Ground in Fort Nelson, BC. The lady that checked us in told us to take or camo truck and hide! Trace, Saije, and I took a shower (7 min. for 1$) and hit the sack.There were alot of sirens all night & once again We woke up in the rain forest we packed up as quick as we could and went to get gas. At the station Lars went to get his wallet and it was in a really good hiding place. We almost had to call Marilyn or Lisa! Just kidding! The Lady in the the store told me that I should have control of the $ for know on. SHe called him a nasty man! I think that is a bad thing in Canada!A few min. down the road we overheated had to fix the timing and then stopped for some home made ice cream it was awesome. We saw a Caribou and a Dall sheep. After coming down a steep grade we came across a bridge and around a tight corner and lost our left rear tire and I do mean the whole tire, lugs and all! The bolts were sheared off as well. Lars got to go fishing in Canada after all- FOr our tire! Up the road aways A bear crossed the road and that made finding the tire alot more important. He found it in Toad River waist deep!
As we were coming into Liard Hot Springs we saw a Grizzly Bear with 2 cubs. They were so beautiful. We set up camp ate stew and Bisquits and went to bed at 1:00 am.
