Got up to 23 degrees and light dry snow so headed out about 9ish for our drive to Prince George. No as much scenery, but just as much, only different. More high altitude scenery, still winter up here, not as much blooming already to be killed off by the cold. At one point the thermometer in the truck showed 17 degrees!!!! Lots of headwinds today, with blowing snow, but it was so cold, it was a very dry snow, unlike what Seattle got today!!!!!
Stopped an Sintich RV Park around 3ish, waters not on yet, they still have a good bit of snow left over. Only hooked up electric again, but at least it was 50 amp this time!!! Trailer temp was down to 40 degrees, poor kitties were all curled up together and boy did Pam catch h#$* from them when she came in to turn on the heat!!!
Bought diesel again, it's actually cheaper the farther north we go, at least so far. Paid $1.223/Liter (122.73 liter= 32.73 gallon, price was $4.629/gallon) Traveled 275.8 miles - averaged 8.3 mpg due to 20 mph headwinds and more mountains to be climbed.
We're off to Dawson Creek in the morning, meeting up with Don and Jo either tomorrow or Monday, stay at Dawson Creek a couple of days, then on for our Northern journey.

Brrrr. It's 72 in TX, 79 in the trailer, and I'm chilled. Not sure if it's physical, or mental after reading your blog. :-)
Hi U 2
from Dennis & Moe Peachland BC
Well as far as we are to see you are Winter weather lovers, you are about 6 weeks early,for our liking, however you may by leaving this early miss a lot of the frost heaves in the road, we will think of you as we are leaving next week to deliver a load of furnishings to Yuma, and of course we will have the reverse problem that you have in tyhat we will be using a lot of A/C, Sasha sends a big kiss, and keep the rubber side down
Oh I forgot, you know of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most,we still expect your visit in the Fall, so just continue on down Hwy 97, & see our part of the Sonoran Desert
