Day 23- 28

Day 28- Liard to Whitehorse
We got up where we left off from the night before with Sanora. Nothing a good meal and a nap couldn't fix. We seemed to stop at allot of the exact stops from when we came down. We had Lunch in Teslin and as always the same waitress was there. I have been texting my dad every leg of the trip to let him know where we are, and I had my phone ready to text him when we reached the welcome to Whitehorse sign. The "Welcome home" message he sent back felt really good. We stopped for beer and some food and raced for home. We walked in the door and I still felt like I was on vacation. We had an amazing trip.

Day 27- Pink Mountain to Laird
Man where we ever glad to get to Laird hot springs. Bryan's saying on the way home was every town's a victory. He more was saying that about the truck than anything. Considering this was the last leg of the journey, we just tried the kick back and relax with a nice long soak in the hot springs. It wasn't as mystical as the first time we came, but fog tends to have that effect. Man was it ever a nightmare putting sanora to bed. She just kept screaming, our poor neighbors. we just figured that there where to many late nights and maybe a bit much on the road.

Day 26- PG - Pink Mountain

By this point we just wanted to get home. Of course in the middle of a thunder shower the windshield wipers stopped working. Bryan was hanging in the middle out the window trying to pull the wipers the start working. By night it was just getting ridicules, not to mention dangerous. We pulled into Pink Mountain and ended up in little campground behind the general store. It was poring so we decided to sleep in the truck. We pulled everything in the back to the front so Sanora sleep along the back and Bryan just leaned his seat back. Lets just say I woke up in allot of pain, not going to do that again if we can help it.


Day 25-Ashcroft - Prince George

We woke up very cold and wet. Sienna was bundled up hugging my body so she was toasty warm. We packed up as fast as we could and headed for the road. When we got to Prince George we decided to get a hotel. We where considering taking the truck to the shop. After ordering pizza the girls had a much needed bath. I tried to find a friend that lives in PG but I couldn't find him.


Day 24- Vancouver - Ashcroft

I wasn't ready to leave so I was stalling like crazy. We made arrangements to meet Chris, Callie, Lara and Jay at Crags Cafe. Before doing so we stopped by Larry and Gloria's and got the see Gena one last time before shipping off. Gloria is looking smoken by the way....yes you too Larry. We had a nice lunch at Craigs, Fin is getting so big. We finally jumped into our trusty steed and swiftly road into the sunset. If we would have stayed any longer it would be sunset. When we got to Chilliwack to check the truck he noticed that there was oil in the coolant tank again. We decided to chance it and keep watching it. We finally arrived into Ashcroft, the town looked creepy at night. We put up the tent and found a Chinese restaurant that was still open,and the food wasn't that bad. Of course that night, pretty much the only night we didn't put up a tarp, it pored that night.


Day 23- Vancouver

For the life of me I can't remember what we did during the day but in the afternoon I picked up a gift for a friend in whitehorse and got something for myself. We had dinner at Wazubees with Brenda, Yuko, Eduardo, Chris, Callie, and our little family. Sanora and Bryan stayed with Chris and callie. It gave me good time to catch up with yuko and get to know Avi a little better. While I hung out with them Bryan and Chris got the full spa treatment. Callie and sanora had done them up in full make-up....even....dun dun dun...nose Shadow. I wasn't sure what Sanora was talking about until Callie sent me photos.
