Day 35

We made the drive from Stewart to Prince George today. We got up and got a decent start. Shari and Amy went to a local bakery and got some breakfast things. The road was pretty good and the smoke seems to have cleared a bit. We couldn’t make good time because the road was very winding and mountainous. A silly little black bear ran in front of the rig and seemed to be frolicking in a nearby field. We stopped in a local town with a park and had lunch. I cooked hot dogs while Grant played in the park. There were plenty of other kids there and he had blast until he was struck by the merry go round and came running crying. There was a medium sized airport in the town and there was a constant stream of fire bomber aircraft returning, refilling and then taking off again. The fires must be raging. We continued on to Prince George BC. It seems like we are getting closer to civilization. We stopped in the campsite in Prince George and I went to check in. We got set up and I went in to pay. I am a member of Good Sam which is like AAA for RV owners. I showed him my Good Sam card to get my discount. I have a temporary card and it does not look like the permanent ones as I have recently joined the club. The old man said “That cards no good”. I said excuse me. He proceeded to accuse me of counterfeiting my Good Sam card. He said “I don’t know where you get these made but its not Good Sam”. I was furious. HE refused to give me my discount. I logged into the Good Sam website later and showed him my active account. I was livid. I will file a complaint with Good Sam against the guy for that behavior. I guess some things will never change.Day 35
