FRIDAY, SEPT 15


FRIDAY, SEPT 13:
     Another bright, warm glorious morning!  Even though I wouldn’t give anything for the weeks we’ve spent in Northern Country, including the cool - and sometimes downright cold - weather, I’m basically a sun worshipper and love the warmth on my back.  So I’m delighted that we’re having warm, sunny weather for the trip back.  For now, at least.   
     Bill & I took another walk down to the lake, same as we did last evening.   Actually, Bill & Pappy went down earlier in the morning, while I was still sleeping.  He took these fabulous pictures then, while the light was just right.  But then came back to get Sleeping Beauty so we could walk it together one more time.

 


                                                                         

                                                                      

                                                                              
 



 
 
 
 


          Continued down the Cassiar.  Can I get tired of saying, “Another beautiful drive!”?? 
 
 
 On the latter part of today’s drive, as we neared the junction for Stewart-Hyder, and going down that road, we started seeing heavy snow/glacial ice on the mountains again in some places.  In fact, we soon came upon Bear Glacier.  One of the few glaciers which comes right up to the road, almost.  There wasn’t any good, safe spot in which to stop with the RV in tow & take a picture, so we’ll double back there with just the truck at some point in the next 2 days.
     We found a lovely RV park right outside of Stewart BC which Rob had recommended.  Booked for 3 nites.  That will give us 2 full days to explore the area – the 2 glaciers here, the quaint town, and maybe give Bill a chance to fish.  Can also do some laundry – the last time on this trip. 
     Oh yes, we spotted several black bears off of the highway today.  There were two juveniles, hanging out together.
