Ptarmigan;
Thanks for the reply sir, I appreciate it.
For sure he seemed like he'd thought it out as well as possible. It's still beyond remote up there though as you know.
Hey we carried a full sized spare in the back of the wife's SUV on our trip because up the Cassiar Highway it's remote enough you know?
We're good thanks.
I mean it's fire season so there's a pretty good one burning just north and west of us filling the valley with smoke. So far only one house has burned, which is good all things considered.
When I put up some of the photos from our BC location on social media, folks from other more civilized parts of the world - well flatter parts for sure - wonder how we live out here. I tell 'em it's a trade off, just as everything in life tends to be so I've found.
On of our daughters is a high school teacher in one of the many cities that make up Greater Vancouver. They won't burn from a forest fire anytime soon, but I'll just make short visits out there thanks kindly...
Thanks again for the initial post and reply.
