The Agnew Family aboard the "Dog House"

Today is a driving day and we plan on driving 350 to 400 km. We left Prince George just after 10:30am and stopped around 12:30pm for lunch as a cute wood shop / gift store. Margaret stopped in amazement just before she went into the trailer .... The rear trailer tire was a rim with black fluff around it. Colin couldn’t believe that he didn’t feel the flat tire as he was driving. Given the condition of the tire, he figured it blew just after we left the campground. Luckily, the place we stopped had lots of room for changing the tire, and Colin got a free lesson on how to remove and replace the tire. Colin then decided to check the rest of his tires and discovered that the rear tire on the other side of the trailer was way down in pressure and required some pumping up. Ed checked our tires and everything was fine. We bought some yummy fudge at the gift shop and were on our way after a 2 hour stop.

Colin was enticed by the RV park in Clinton that advertised a rate of 9.99 / day and an “all you can eat BBQ buffet” for $9.99. The gentleman running the RV park and barbeque (it appeared to me to be a one man show) gets into our “List of Characters”. When we checked in, he left whatever was on the grill, jumped into his pickup truck and led the way to our sites and directed us in. I presume he raced back to rescue the food he was barbequing. We wandered over for dinner .... who could resist the price and chatted with him. He seems to have lived everywhere (born in Mexico), including Fergus (where Colin and Margaret are from) and done a lot of different things in his life.


Not much left of this tire, is there?
