Had WiFi

September 14
We said we wanted to be ready to go at ten and it was 10:02 when we pulled away. I figure that was pretty good. It was cool this morning so we were glad that we had our jackets.
The drive was so very nice. The sun was shining and there was no smoke.The traffic was light as well. Going through the Kelowna area we met 12 red lights and 17 green lights. So Ken had to admit that it wasn’t too bad.









We stopped in the Peachland area and picked up peaches and plums and grapes. The grapes were so sweet that I am certain that would be illegal on a diabetic diet.






I could not believe the number of wineries in this part of the world. A person could get sloshed in a hurry just sampling the local wines in the various tasting rooms.

We drove to Sicamous and that is where we stopped for lunch. The day was still warm and very clear. We have stopped at this small recreation area before. It is perfect because it is so easy to turn around a big rig. I made sandwiches and we relaxed for a little while.
Then we were off again.





It wasn’t long before we began to see the mountains and got our first glimpse of snow. These mountains are magnificent. Soon the mountain tops will be a brilliant white with the new snow which will arrive soon.

We arrived at Canyon Hot Springs around four. We will be here for only one night and we paid for just one session in the Hot Pools. We were given site #159 and last time we had site #162. There are only some places where you can park a 35 foot rig.






 We will leave in the morning. Google says we are about 5 hours from Strathmore so that means it will be at least 7 hours if not more. We plan to be underway by nine.
