Going Down the Highway
Prince George was our destination today, about 3 hours of driving. We were about a ½ hour outside of Prince George when Ed cursed loudly. A vehicle driving the other direction had kicked up a stone and we had a chip in the center of the windshield about the size of a nickle. About 5 minutes later, Colin radioed to asked if our green carpet (a piece of fake grass that we put by the steps into the trailer) had blown out of the back of the truck. We pulled over and yes it was gone. We decided it wasn’t worth the effort of going back for it. We stopped at the Information Centre on the way into town and received a lot of help from 2 lovely young ladies. One of them made a couple of calls on our behalf including to a Speedy Auto Glass. The guy at Speedy said that he thought he could fix the chip without having to replace the windshield (hooray!!!). When Ed took it in later in the afternoon it turned out that the guy was correct — wow that saved us some money.
On the way back to the campground, Ed took Wendy’s advise and stopped at a barber shop.
