Meet the Smiths

This Port Alberni couple are following the sun

by Joni Krats

Lorraine and Ward Smith—with their manx-cross cat Stubby—are travelling with their truck and trailer set up.

The Port Alberni couple are taking a slightly longer trip through British Columbia, trying to get a feel for their RV needs. They are considering upgrading to a unit with slide-outs, but want to maximize fuel efficiency and ease of towing. They have a 32-foot fifth-wheel in mind.

During their month long trip, the couple have been to Spokane and Coeur d’Alene. They base their decisions on the weather.

“We are following the sun,” said Ward. “It’s relaxing, that’s for sure.”
