Visit in Victoria


We ended up going to Victoria late September for another visit with Barb, Liz and Lorne. We met some new people in our park, from St. Thomas of all places; and drove Bob to the airport in Victoria; and then spent the night with Barb.

We went out to a nice pasta place and met Liz and Lorne for dinner. We had a nice time; and when we arrived back at Barb's she told me that her bathtub was all ready for me to indulge in! The thing I miss most is my bathtub; and when the park doesn't have a hot tub; I miss it even more.

I must have spent close to an hour in there; and enjoyed every minute of it! The next day, Barb toured us through Sooke; and part way to Port Renfrew before heading back to Victoria. We enjoyed seeing the gang again; and have plans to do it again.

Roughly a week later, we had some excitement at our site. We had a really bad wind storm; and this place is filled with trees. Lots and lots of really tall trees. We had just gotten off the phone with Mike's brother, Ken; and went out to get some fresh air before dinner. And much to my surprise, a tree had come down and was lying right across our fire pit; extending right across the road! WOW! Didn't even hear it come down. Our guardian angels are still looking out for us though; cause the tree fell away from our rig; and didn't do any damage to us. The park workers came and cleared it off the road the next day; and finished the clean up on Monday. Only tree in the whole park that came down.

Take a look at our pictures
