We had a good ferry ride yesterday - Larry didn't chew any new holes in the door. Stayed in Prince Rupert last night. Today's drive on the Yellowhead Highway was beautiful. Tonight we are staying in Houston, B.C. We'll probably be in Canada until Thursday. We'll enter into the U.S. about the middle of Washington state, north of Spokane. We plan to take US-2 again going east. We saw a mother bear and her cub crossing the road today. Just as Eldon had put his camera down, the cub ran across so we didn't get a picture. We also saw a bear on the way to the ferry Sundary morning. The sun was actually out in Ketchikan when we left Sunday morning.

Comments from Eldon: The first time I've ever been in road block for fish. Near Terrace, British Columbia on the Yellowhead Highway, the only highway, conservation officers had a fish check. I was told we were illegal because we had thrown away our expired fishing license from halibut fishing. We couldn't prove the fish were Alaskan. I played stupid - which I was - and said I said I didn't know and was sorry. The officer came in the camper and looked at the fish in our freezer. I think he was reallly after local fishermen because the salmon are running. It is easier to stop fishermen on the road than on the water. Anyway, he ended up letting us keep our fish and sent us on our way. And told Larry to have a good adventure.

Comments from Larry: I wasn't going to let the officer take our fish. But he smiled at me and told me to have a good adventure so he's OK in my book. No boat rides today - yea!
