Link to the original/old blog post. It has been a wonderful, busy, tiring, exhilarating, thrilling, exhausting week. So much has happened since my last post I can’t possibly do it justice, but I can try! So the day after my super funtastic day in Revelstoke, I drove through Golden to the Radium Hot springs in…

A Lovely Older Couple, Some Perspective, and Van Coffee on the Balcony
Here’s a link to the original post on my old blog: Original Post When I first arrived at Harrison Hot Springs, I was feeling pretty punchy from a long day of driving but I was clinging to the fantasy of staying at the resort and soaking in the springs. It didn’t disappoint! First I was…
Super FUNtastic day!
Wow, today was the most fun I’ve had in a while. It started out a little meh because most of the main road in Revelstoke National Park is still closed due to snow. I drove up until the road was blocked and they had a big turnaround post. Some people were parking and then walking…
Chuckanut, Chilliwack…Is today Tuesday?

Road trip day 3, hustle to get a camp spot!
I had to get an early start today. 4 hour drive to get to the Coulter Bay Campground in Grand Teton NP…and all camping is first-come-first-served. Which really means, show up late and you have no hope of camping anywhere in the park. So, after reserving a few quiet moments to watch sunrise and have…
Road trip – Day 2, still written on day 4
I didn’t sleep well that night. I think because I drank too much coffee too late because I was worried about getting sleepy while driving. Woop, add that one to the list of worries. I got up early…before anyone else. I made my coffee and walked over to the river to enjoy the peacefulness of…
Summer Road Trip 2018 – Day 1 (written on day 4)
Wow, just realized it is already day 4!! Ok, back to day 1… I wisely had planned that this would be a short day, only 4 driving hours. I pretty much got everything ready the day before and the truck was mostly packed, which is how I was lulled into complacency and ended up leaving…
