Hi All: Still in Clinton, BC. Started out a little cooler this morning, then progressed in to a full blown rain. We drove up town this morning and I turned to where I thought the WalMart I could see was and ended up on the big Interstate 5 going North. The way we came in. Could not get turned around for about 15 miles. The cloud that I made over my head was probably the cause for the rain...

We went to a restaurant in town the campground recommended. We both had a open faced turkey sandwich. It was huge, with french fries. Could not finish it all. The campground even gave us a coupon that got half off for the second meal. I am stuffed now. Glad we had a real good meal for our last meal in Canada..

Photo above is of Alan Jackson painted on the side of one of the buildings. Amy had to stand out in the rain to take the picture. We had planned on walking around town today, but did not want to do it in the rain. They had lots of buildings with photo's painted of Country Music folks. Lots of them must be Canadians, as I never heard of them. Nice little town...


A close up of Alan Jackson on the building. The painter didn't do to bad a job..

Here's a Mammoth tusk they had in the museum we visited. It felt and looked like it was petrified. Sure is a big tooth.


Here's our muddy Motor Home. The rain has not cleaned it up at all. Will have to load the car in the morning hoping the rain has stopped by then. Guess I could get a bucket of soapy water and clean the motor home in the rain??? NOT...
We will leave in the morning heading for Washington State. About 150 miles and we'll be back in the USA. Stopping in Mount Vernon for two days, as Amy has to do laundry. Haven't done any since we left Alaska, and running low on stuff.. Will be there for two days, then on to Seattle area for 3 days. Getting closer to getting home now...
Fires still burning up here. Not enough rain yet I guess. Saw on news the fire got to within 12 kilometers of Prince George, where we were before we got here. They are still under smoke there. Clear here except for rain clouds...
Later..
Semper Fi
Don, Amy & Pharaoh...
