We left the disgusting campsite early. We drove a long range bomb to Vancouver today. It took all day since much of the drive was on 2 lane highways. We slowly returned to civilization. The gas stations began getting more frequent and the wilderness less and less. It was somehow comforting to return to civilization, yet I felt like I left something in the wilderness. Returning to civilization somehow made it feel over. It felt like the purity of the nature was gone. The fires are bad today. The smoke so thick it has blotted the sun. Several time helicopters swooped to the rivers bellow to fill up their fire dousing buckets. The news last night said that they were planning on bringing re-enforcements from Australia and New Zealand. We descended into Vancouver and got on the freeway. We made our way top our campsite which was actually just 2 miles or so from the border. It was actually a difficult site to get the trailer into but Amy the master helmsman got it done. We have an off today in Vancouver and we are looking forward to the break from driving.
