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.

Our rig, a 2009 Fleetwood Providence (40-foot) is home away from home as we are on the chuckwagon racing trail. We travel from the May long weekend to September 1 every weekend from as far south as Sundre, Alberta, to up north to Rycroft.
