Long trip home! We arrived last night around 8:30 pm, in time to pull up at Roger's mom & dad's to catch the end of his 87th birthday party.
We had dry roads the whole way until yesterday, when we had some rain, then icy roads for about 3 hrs (approaching and after Plentywood)
. That was a bit hair-raising. They got better as we approached home. The trip there and back is definitely the big downside of this trip.
Lots of snow at home in the past couple of days, so our driveway was full. Our friend Tim lives 2 blocks away and was over on Wed and again on Thur snowblowing for us so that we'd be able to park the trailer, as the streets are full of snow. That was a nice surprise. Thank you, Tim!
It's good to be home. The next few weeks will be spent making final preparations for our trip to Amsterdam & Portugal (Apr 2-30).
Thanks for following our travels. It's nice to correspond with friends and family along the way.
P.S. I'm writing this final update on Sat, Mar 8. It's a beautiful sunny day (0 degrees C) and melting. The attached picture is of Roger, cleaning the eggs someone threw at the trailer and truck last night. Argh, damn kids.

Glad you are safely home. Those little beggars - what a waste of eggs! Were they at least frozen enough to lift off? What a nice neighbour to clear your driveway. That's a lot of snow!!

Just finished reading your Arizona blog. Very entertaining and interesting as our trips have taken us to many of the same places. Thanks again for the fun visit and BBQ..am thrilled to have been mentioned in your blog! Lol I only regret that we didn't take picture of all of us, but I will 'borrow' one of yours for my photobook. I haven't read your latest story yet, but will soon. You tell great stories. We are off to BC and Alaska next month, so are busy planning and organizing for that (as well as getting the trailer ready for camping season). Hope to see you again in our travels.
