Ready for the holidays !! :) I only worked till 3 pm on Saturday and got picked up. It was just pouring ! Time to go find the sunshine ! And that's what we did... After figuring out where to go and a good sleep we packed everything we needed in the truck (food, sleeping bags, air mattresses, tent,...) and hit the road on Sunday. Our first stop was a nice little restaurant where we had a good lunch. The weather was just ugly, thick grey clouds and pouring rain off and on. yuk ! After buying a swim suit in Rocky Mountain house we hit the highway to the mountains. It was just great to be in the wilderness again, with almost no rain !! ;) Everywhere were puddles, high rivers and creeks, flooded lakes and still grey clouds hanging in the sky... Will the weather ever be nice again... ?! Our next halt was at Crescent falls. A nice waterfall (when there is no muddy water) in the mountains. The river was very full. There were little creeks coming out the bush on the road. Amazing how much water came down in the last 2 weeks ! Now it was time to leave again. Nice scenery mountains, trees and rivers. Ah, yeah this is Canada how I love it ! We made a short stop to take pictures from Bighorn Dam, a man made lake in Clearwater County. You could see the line where the water was used to be it was quite a ways down, not much water in it.. and that after all that rain ! Soon it was time to find a campground to put up the tent before dark. We had to figure out how to put it up. Jupee ! My first tenting experience in the Canadian wilderness ;D After enjoying a nice campfire and camping stove cooked supper we all were tired and crawled in the tent for our first sleep in the bush...
