Chugging across BC (British Columbia, Canada)


June 22, 2013
I have found a Mercedes flaw—the speed is only shown in MPH.  I guess I shouldn’t complain; it keeps me math-fluid…maybe.  The line of cars impatiently chugging behind me may indicate that I am not as competent with my calculations as I assume!  SMILES!  (Yes, of course I pull over to let them by!)
We made it into Prince George today.  Matt got to see his favorite kind of museum—trains!!!  We poked around and took pictures of Matt-at-the-controls in numerous cars and engines.  (He is so photogenic when he is genuinely happy!)  On the way out of town, we stopped to get photos of the famous Mr. PG—the symbol for this Canadian town.
I have NO idea where we are tonight.  It is a free campground in a small town close to a lake…sadly, “small” and “lake” are identifying markers for most of the towns on this stretch of the Canadian highway.  Our gas tank is almost full, so I figure we can just get back on the highway and head west…we should run into Prince Rupert tomorrow.

Mr. PG's best side--smiles!

Mr. PG!
