September 25th – Cariboo District – Quesnel BC to Hope BC

Today was a relatively short day.   I traveled only 6 hours, 510 kilometers=317 miles.

For the first time in almost 2 months, the daytime temperature reached 77.  My journey today took me through what is called the Cariboo District.

 I don’t know what this was, but it was everywhere, and for some reason looked fascinating to me!

These  white “pillows” are hay bales covered with plastic.   I called them “BC Marshmellows”!

These gold and white weeds were all over the sides of the highway.   They looked like broccoli and cauliflower!

I stayed overnight at the Hope Valley Campground.

Remember that the heat had quit working in the T@b?  It wasn’t as cold tonight, so I and Burrito and Oreo felt just fine without it.   The camp site was a beautiful wooded one.   I warmed up some chili for supper.
