It's Raining!!!

When it rains in Canada it really rains. Three weeks ago in this area it dropped 100mm of rain in 48 hrs. I have no idea how much that is, but the locals were amazed and it caused major problems in the area.

The Trans Canada highway was washed out in several places, many million dollar homes were washed downstream. So Charlotte and I are driving downstream looking for one of those houses to pack up and ship to Montana.

A rain day for us is a day to pause and reflect, eat and watch a movie in Andiamo. We watched Finding Forrester last night and were very entertained. Dinner was left overs for me and a nice pan fried piece of Sole for Charlotte. Charlotte made a chocolate run so we could eat Reeses Pieces and popcorn during the movie. I was supposed to clean up the dishes but got caught up watching a documentary on film editing and lost track of time.

Today we are heading out to ride the highest gondola in North America and hopefully hike down back to Banff. We shall see as the clouds are starting to gather as I type this note.

Life on the road is starting to settle into somewhat of a routine as we get to know one another better as well as the cycles of being road warriors. We have met some fine folks along the way too that make RV living so much more fun and interesting.

Not much else to report today. We are working on our next month of travel and it looks like we are heading west through British Columbia to Vancouver then down to Seattle before driving east back to Idaho.

All the best to our friends and families!

Andiamo!
El Capitan, Charlotte and JoJo the Magnificent.
