Chris, Scout and I spent this past weekend on a roadtrip to Prince George. We decided to head down there because we wanted to go on a trip for our anniversary weekend and we thought we should go somewhere we'd never been before and probably wouldn't go to if we didn't live up here. So, Prince George seemed like the obvious choice being only a five hour drive away and through the infamous Pine Pass.
We left Friday morning and arrived in Prince George around 2 o'clock.
On Saturday morning, after a visit to the Tourist Info Centre, we found a nice spot for a walk called Cottonwood Isle Park. It was very lush and green and filled with giant cottonwood trees. What made the park really special was that an artist had begun to carve faces in some of the trees that were really amazing! It made the trees seem like they were alive and watching us! A forest full of elves! Here is a picture of one of them.
So after a weekend of naturewalks, shopping and eating in restaurants we don't have in FSJ we headed back on Sunday. On the way home we saw both a black bear and a moose, and also came across a roadside waterfall in the Pine Pass where we stopped to have a little walk for Scout. Here's the waterfall and us at the waterfall!
Hope everyone else had a nice long weekend!

sounds like fun! from that last picture, you can really tell which one of you is getting more sun.
hey, I am outside every day, but you're right I am looking pale. I think the pic must be overexposed, because I think Chris is darker than that too!
Chris looks terribly mischevious in the last photo. It's almost as if to say "you cant smell it yet claire, but i just farted"
