I travel by land and sea from Abbotsford to Hornby Island, a tiny island between Vancouver Island and the mainland to discover the true nature of a tiny place steeped in hippy lore.

I continue my journey through the Canadian Rocky Mountains from Nelson through the Okanagan Valley, E.C. Manning Park and eventually making my way to Abbotsford BC.

I travel from Pincher Creek Alberta to Nelson British Columbia stopping at Waterton National Park, narrowly avoiding overheating in mountain passes and exploring the Kootaney lake area.

I travel from Fort Qu'Appelle to Pinch Creek visiting Grasslands National Park, Cypress Hills Provincial Park, nearly running out of gas and experiencing some prairie lightning storms first hand.

I meet up with my new friend Brenen and we discuss living in Saskatchewan, the First Nations Peoples and Tuxie the cat who decided I'm her new owner.

Continuing along the Trans Canada Highway, I make my way to Regina where I meet some new friends, learn interesting things and attend a Rough Riders game.

I travel from Kenora to Winnipeg, struggling with van troubles once again. I have a chance to visit the Winnipeg museum of Human Rights.

I have a conversation with Don, owner of the ranch. We discuss local wildlife, water levels and general life in Northwestern Ontario.

I travel from Ignace to Kenora, stopping at every possible place to fish. Eventually finding myself at a paradise outside town on a beautiful lake.

Van troubles continue to plague me. Stuck for the day in Thunder Bay.
