Written August 8 I woke up a couple of times during the night to the sound of rain. Light showers I guess because when I got up, nothing seemed wet and the sun was shining. The earth must be like a sponge right now because it has been so long since it rained. I ate...
I can’t believe it. I am sitting in a campground which is truly in the middle of nowhere and I have an internet connection. No phone but internet. It boggles the mind. My campsite overlooks a little lake and is surrounded by fireweed. Ummm beautiful. The effects...

I wrote this yesterday and this morning woke up to that amazing hanging mist again. It is cool…what a relief. I am told that the Island doesn’t have much in the way of internet or cell phone accessibility. I will be getting back here Thursday night fairly...
I said that Danial told me that it would take 7 hours to get to Vancouver from here. Nope. I made that up. He said it would take 14. Actually he said once…when he really blew the speed limit out the window, it only took him 12. Well, I have not been going over...
