We are in Smithers, BC we have had a really good riding day, the sun finally came out & it was really nice. I saw a black bear swimming in the river, we turned around & went back & he was looking at us so cute, but when we stopped, he ran in the trees like a scared bear & no chance for a picture.
We are in a motel tonight, day for allergy shots & glad that is over for another week. We ate at Boston Pizza, split a very good meal & then split a cho dessert & that was super good. Breakfast is served at 7 so we plan to be ready to eat then & get down the road. Even though we went 380 miles today, we are still a long way from home.
Took this picture of a billy goat statue in Smithers. This may be the closest we will get to one. The picture of the River is the Ness river. Sorry there are two of the same one. This is about 100 yards from where Alfreda saw the bear swimming across a pond. The picture of the mountains is looking toward Stewart, BC and Hyder, Alaska is. If we would have had more time we would have went the 45 miles west and saw the glaciers and the brown bears catching salmon. Maybe next time.
Alfreda, it's a cinch there is no grass growing under your feet--you are on the move, but am sure you knew is was a long way to th end of the line and a long way home. I'll bet that home is going to look awfully good to you when you get back. That is what trips are for--they make you really appreciate home. Doug was here a large part of the day--did some computer updates and we went out to the golf course for lunch--really a beautiful place today--every blade of grass and ever leaf was in place. Talk to you later, G'night.
