Pouring down rain this morning as we started out for Watson Lake. We were back on Highway 37 but due to the rain it was slow going for the first hour. When the sun finally peaked through the clouds we passed several very large lakes, and of course more trees. It’s hard to believe you can drive for miles and miles and not see any farms or houses at all.
We are always on the lookout for wildlife and there are signs all over the place indicating wildlife crossing, but today we actually saw a large brown bear on the side of the highway. Kathe quickly tried to get a picture through the window. Not bad!
It seemed to me that it took forever today as the road was bumpy and very windy so I for one was glad when we stopped for lunch at a roadside pullout. There was a huge number of swallowtails on the side of the road and flying all around us. Too many to count, but so beautiful.
We arrived in Watson Lake and checked into Baby Nugget RV late this afternoon. We were lucky enough to get a pull through site with 50amp power. Good thing because it was so hot this afternoon that we needed the air conditioning. It’s been cold and raining everywhere else, but now it’s finally sunny.
No one wanted to cook tonight and there is a restaurant on site. So no cocktails tonight.
