Well here we are in the good ol USA and we are at a KOA in Burlington, WA. The trip here was pretty easy and the weather has been good ... about 65 and partly cloudy and about 48 at night. Been too busy to get many new pics, especially of the parks we've been in. We've got a lot of RV maintenance to do so tomorrow night we will camp at the RV dealer and see what he intends to do with the list of stuff we need warranty work on for Friday. He's offered to let us stay on the lot, as we did when we first bought the machine in Texas, so by Saturday night we'll know more how the fixit process is going. I assume that what the RV dealer has to offer is minimal as far as amenities ... just pull it into line with all the other used busses and enjoy the evening, eh. After that we intend to spend about a month over on Whidbey Island, exploring and being with the Gardners and relax a bit more from our cross continent and European run.

Here's a couple more pictures of our time in the Vancouver area. This one is inside the building where British Columbia was declared a province and a really good painting depicting the ceremony.


Here's the civic center in the town of Fort Langley and obviously the setting for many local wedding photo ops.


The view of North Vancouver as seen from Stanley Park with Vancouver proper to my back. That's the Lions Gate Bridge and beyond, I believe it is Grouse Mountain where the tram takes you up to the top where you can dine with a superb view over the city.


Probably will be the 1st of October before we can link up again but I'll get the camera out and start snapping more of the beautiful NW.
