Hi from Toad River, BC.....

So...try finding that on a map!! Interesting day. We made 405 miles; not the distance we wanted, but OK based on the troubles we had. Blew a tire on the front of the tow vehicle today and didn't notice it right away (the size and weight of the motorhome makes it virtually impossible to recognize what is going on with the tow vehicle). Anyway, by the time we knew what was going on, we had totally wrecked the rim...bent up the inside wheel well (fixable), and pretty much wrecked the other front tire. We were able to put on the spare, limp to town, and about 3 hours later (and much $), we were fixed up and back on the road.

But ignoring our mechanical challenges, we had a great day. We saw Moose, Caribou, and Deer on the road this evening. We are staying at a small RV park tonight with a rolling creek out our back door; and the weather is drop dead gorgeous.
