Thumbs up Kootenay Tour June 5-6

Vancouver to Castlegar via Princeton.

One night at the Super8 (with a scary water slide)

Charlie V has the details about what time and where it starts in Vancouver on Saturday June 5th.

Good practice for the CanAm a week later.

Leaving from Abbotsford Starbucks near Costco, 7:00AM Sat Jun 5, over-night in Castlegar, return to Vancouver next day.

Exact route TBD, but it will be the twistiest route, with lots of seat time

Weather looks promising, so join the fun!

Lumby around 1:00? There is nothing there.

How about changing that to the Mall on the corner of #6 & #97 in Vernon??

We met there a couple years ago and had Lunch at the same time.
I remember a Subway? there and can make it by 1:00.

No "stripping" in that Mall but, the Marlene in Castlegar is still open.

In case of delay on Saturday, call Phil on his Cell.

Less rain would be nice.

Another great weekend of driving & good company. I think we are going to get calluses on our butts...........1950 km two weeks ago, 1650 km this weekend & now another 1950+ km on the upcoming weekend.

Al, a big "thank you" to your relatives for the warm welcome & great BBQ. Did anyone get a photo of Gunter eating "MEAT"?
Holly had a blast playing with Bruno & getting to run free.

At least the heavy rain from Abbotsford to NV did a pre-soak on the bugs embedded in to the front of the car. Now we have to find time to get the car clean before Friday.

Deb & Rolf

Amazing that the weather was so nice Saturday going through the Monashees.

Mickey and Netty went all out and I always wonder what could be done in return?

The noodle salad was great but the "Burger" convinced me to continue with mostly veggies.

Between the Moscow, ID, Chinese fare and Designer-food in Osoyoos, I have yet to find something for my delicate nature.

Lots of Miles and surprisingly, no complaints.

I think that responsible driving builds up the reputation of Porsche-drivers.

Our hosts.......many thanks for the hospitality. Blurry picture thanks to me being a little blurry eyed from all the miles.



Proof that Gunter eats red meat. We did witness him putting it into his mouth and chewing on it too!!!

Mickey and Nettie really really enjoyed having you all for a visit.
Good food, good beer, good company, good times!

They're already planning for next year, so put another Kootenay tour on your June 2011 calendar!
