Too tired to write yesterday. We did only about 32 miles with maybe 1400 feet of elevation gain
, but Nancy said it was the hardest 30 miles she’d ever done, and I would come close to agreeing. So much for my theory that we would be riding along the bottom of the valley, so it should be relatively flat.
But it was very scenic and we all enjoyed it.
We got very late start, close to noon by the time we got out of Osoyoos, and it was 5-ish before we got to OK falls. We asked a teenage girl which way to the provincial park, and she, of course, steered us the wrong way. After a couple of miles we were smart enough to ask again and got turned back the other way. But signage for finding the part was practically non-existent, so we opted for the RV part instead. Not very scenic… stuck way back in the corner behind the office and next to th4 restrooms… but functional , and we were tired.
My friends Gail and John from Texas are up here on vacation, and I went out for dinner and a nice visit with them while the others had a meal at camp.
Then we had a bit of excitement right after bedtime. I heard loud voices and then a strange loud scrambling sound…. Kids climbing over the fence right next to our tents, after running through the park and stealing beer, pop, and, for some reason, an ear of corn, from Rver’s coolers. They got away but dropped about half of their haul climbing over the fence. We found the ear of corn the next morning.
