Canada, eh!

So we have made it to British Columbia, Canada.  We arrived on Friday just before it started to rain.  The drive from Leavenworth on Highway 97 was just beautiful.  The highway follows the Columbia River and you are in the valley for the entire drive.  The border checkpoint was uneventful and the line was only 5 cars as the highway is a less traveled route into Canada. 

The RV park is unimpressive but we did not have a lot to choose from in Oliver and this one sounded and looked the best.  They have some small grass strips here and there but for the most part it is all asphalt and the spaces are fairly close together, but the view is spectacular.  Here are some pictures.

This space required me to back into it as did the space in Leavenworth and in Walla Walla.  I used to be very good at backing when we had travel trailers years ago, but after the long absence without a trailer I did not readily pick the skill back up with the two trailers we had prior to this fifth wheel and really struggled when I had to back into a space.  With the fifth wheel I am finding it is much easier even with the extra length.  So far I have not had any real problems backing into spaces.

Before I leave this post I thought I would add some final pictures from Leavenworth.

My new hat! The Indiana Jones look.

Fran liked this plant.

The best part, the view!
