North of Nelson, British Columbia, on Kootenay Lake

My husband and I were visiting the Nelson/Balfour area for the first time in our 1970-something Boler travel trailer. On arrival at the campsite, we were assigned a lakefront spot and when we parked, we were the only people there; however, as we set up camp, neighbours arrived to the left and to the right of us. Once we had set up camp, we decided to take a drive to Balfour and as we were pulling out of our campsite, I looked back at our trailer and this picture is what I saw. The difference in size between us and our neighbors really tickled our funny bones. We've now graduated to a 28' fifth wheel but we still talk about our little Boler, how much fun we had in it and how simple life was back then.

A top-notch travel companion

We have a 22-foot Yellowstone. My husband and I, along with our furry companion Cassie, love to travel together. Cassie is a purebred long-haired shepherd. She's our trustworthy, sidekick travel companion. She's always the first one in the motorhome when it's time to vacation. Cassie has her very own favourite spot to sit while on the road - we open the window just enough so she can stick her head out for air. While on the road she sticks her head out of the window and watches motorists passing by. We often get laughs and comments about how funny it looks to see this motorhome go by with a dogs head sticking out and tongue flopping in the wind. On our way from Chilliwack, BC, to Penticton, BC, I took this photo of Cassie enjoying the sights along the way.
