LINDA AND STUART AT NO FIXED ADDRESS

Linda and Stuart retired from the BC Forest Service at the end of June 2009. They decided to sell their home in Kamloops, buy a new 38ft Bighorn 5th wheel and a Dodge diesel 3500 and go on the road with No Fixed Address.

FIRST WEEK IN BARRIERE

Sept 19/09
Not only do we have no fixed address but we have no cell phone coverage in Barriere. We’ve used Skype to make a call or two but otherwise, we haven’t been talking to anyone by telephone.

It’s hard to believe that we’ve been here for over a week now and it’s been great, just like the first week of a fall vacation. The weather has been fantastic, sunny and warm most days although we had rain and thunderstorms today. We’ve been out golfing 3 times (yippee!) at Chinook Cove and it’s a scenic and challenging course. We’ve met a few interesting characters but have mostly played by ourselves.


We also went out fishing the other day and were the only ones on Hallamore Lake which is north and east of Little Fort. We took the ferry across the North Thompson River to get to the Dunn Lake road for access. We hooked half a dozen fish but released a few that were too small and the biggest one broke my line just before Stuart could net it. Oh well, we’ll try again another day.
