I heard the rain start about 4 am, but it only lasted for a couple of hours. When it stopped the ravens started calling to each other. They are so loud, but they signal that it is time for us to get up. Breakfast and packing was quick this morning and we are on the road by 7:15.
While we were in Alaska a huge rainstorm came through this area. Our friend Tommy had warned us of the damage and road closures. Today was spent waiting at several places for a pilot car to come and take us through, once waiting for almost half an hour. Boy was there a ton of damage. But the road crews have it under control.
We stopped for lunch in Prince George, we are now back once again on the same roads we came north on. Cindy and Bob have contacted an old friend in Kamloops BC, and have decided to detour east in order to see him. The rest of us decide to head directly home. We continue south towards the town of Cashe Creek where we will split up for the last time.
It is late when we get to the small town of Clinton so we decide that it is far enough for that day. We pull into a RV park and set up camp. The smell of BBQ draws us over to the restaurant for one last group dinner. The food was awesome and the cook was a hoot! He gave Cindy a really hard time, but she can give as good as she gets, so we were all laughing by the time we had desert!!
