I'm back (PLUS, Day 1 of Vancouver trip!)

It's been awhile, I know. Never fear. I've amassed a grip-load of stories and pictures to tell you all!

The following few blog entries will be as follows: One entry for each day of my recent vacation to Vancouver Island with Maggie. There is a lot of photos and one blog post just isn't going to be enough.

So,…. Day 1. Maggie decided we needed to go on a trip. Canada seemed like an OK choice. It was close, familiar, and could be reached by car. Due to our time limit, we knew we couldn't see everything, so we decided a surgical strike onto Vancouver Island would be a good use of our time.

I set up the truck for some possible camping adventures, even laying down some carpet underneath the canopy should the weather take a turn for the wet and we wanted to sleep in the truck.
On the drive north, we stopped at Maggie’s parent’s house for a quick visit, then it was up to Pleasant Harbor on the Olympic Peninsula to visit momma-blog and step-father (we'll call him Wolfman).
We spent the night on their 37 foot cabin cruiser in the V-berth. Decadent.
