Pemberton, BC

From Richmond, we headed to Pemberton so Lithus could ferry a helicopter back to the States. We expected we would be there 2 or 3 days, so had the hotel through Thursday after arriving Tuesday. Wednesday, we extended through Saturday. Thursday, I inquired about availability through the weekend and into the next week.

Friday, Lithus called at 2:43 and told me to get packed; we were leaving. The aircraft had to get back to the States now. At 3:09, we were driving away from the hotel, bags packed and loaded, room cleared, hotel receipt in hand.

Rugged Canadian beauty; plastic American commercialism.
You're welcome.






This sign reads "Barn Raising May 2-4!!"

Dissonance ~ this is a light brew coffee. Gack.

The hotel and the view off our balcony.




The ferry from Canada to the US:

This is how I'm used to clearing customs any longer
All in all, it was a good 2 weeks.
