We drove
approximately 250 miles today, thank goodness it wasn’t the brutal 310 miles
like yesterday. About 50 miles short of
our next camp spot we had a blow out on the highway just South of Ft.
Nelson. After a loud boom we pulled
over to find our rear trailer tire was torn to shreds. And with only 2-3 feet of shoulder to pull
off on this 2 lane road. We put out two
orange traffic cones in the street to warn passersby that we were having a
problem. Of course it was a tire on the
traffic side of the highway which made it more dangerous for Norm to change the
tire. The cones helped a bunch as people
were able to see them at a good distance, slow down and get in the other
lane. In no time Norm had the tire
changed and we were back on the road. We
made it to our camp spot for the night.
Another night of boondocking at a place we stayed at on the way up to
Alaska. An abandoned campground just
outside the tiny town of Prophet River.
There was one other camper when we got there and a couple more came in
later. This is a very nice place just off
the road back in some trees.
