July 7, 2012 – Dave’s RV Park, Vanderhoof, BC, Canada

368 miles today – Started out in the rain today.  So the glaciers that stood out in the sun on the way in yesterday, and we said we’d take pictures of today on the way out, were now under a overcast sky with light rain.   Not much to say for the drive, we saw our one bear for today crossing the road (that’s not counting the one we saw that had been hit by a car) and more pretty scenery.  Today about half the drive was in a valley through ranching and farming land.  We are out of the frost heaves and the further we came we started seeing more homes and towns.  We even saw, and ate at, a McDonalds.  Where we originally planned to stop seemed way to early when we got there, so we decided to go about an hour and a half further to a municipal campground.  We were thinking of the municipal campground we stayed at in Seward.  Well this one was nothing more than a dirt road in a circle the size of a cul-de-sac.  On we came for another hour and a half to Dave’s RV Park.  We were blessed for the mistake, this is one of the prettiest RV parks we have stayed at on the trip.  It’s about a mile out of town and than a half mile off the highway.  Like most parks we have stayed at, it has Wi-Fi, Cable TV, and full hook-ups.  But, the sites are nicely spaced with grass in between.  The grounds are immaculate and they have a miniature golf course that is planted with the prettiest flower beds.
