Day 37: 6/4/15

| Mary dwarfed by trees |
Left McBride at 9:15am in sprinkling
rain heading to Prince George and beyond.
At 10am, Mary spotted a big brown bear on the side of the road, 5
minutes later, she spotted a black bear, we tried to take pictures of him but
as soon as we stopped, he high-tailed it into the woods.
About 11, we stopped at an ancient old
growth forest. They had hiking trails
and a 900 meter boardwalk. We enjoyed
our walk among the enormous trees but as we headed back, the mosquitos found us
and we barely made it out alive.

| Big trees make me look small too |
We stopped in Prince George for gas and
some groceries we couldn’t find in McBride and about 2:30 we continued west on
16. Mary checked the “Camping in BC”
book and found a place, Pipers Glen in Frasier Lake, BC so we made that our
goal for the day.
 |
| Incredible blue color in the lake. |
About 4:45, we arrived at Pipers Glen
and were welcomed by a fantastic view of Frasier Lake. $24 a night and a spectacular view to boot –
what a deal.

We were talking with the folks next
door (Susan and Bruce from Corpus Christi, TX) when Bruce mentioned that he had
been to Tennessee several times to visit his sister who lives in Loudon in a
place called Tellico Village! Small World!
