The farther south we got, the smokier it got. Eventually, Ann had to wear her mask.

Back together with our traveling buddies, we and the Vidals had another long day of driving, almost entirely without cell service.

The early morning was beautiful. Ann shot this photo of some random lake. 

A couple hours later we stopped at this rest stop. Signs all over the rest stop warned us to beware of bears. By this time we’d seen several bears along the road, so we took the signs seriously.

In a hurry to get to Prince George, we only stopped for gas, so any photos we took were from the road.

At one gas stop we couldn’t resist taking a Klondike photo for the group:

When we finally got into some cell service in Prince George, we discovered that Marty/Don/Rob/Diana were also planning to spend the night in Prince George, but they arrived far later than we did, so we never did meet up with them.

In the morning we planned to drive to the US and Renton.
