This post is long overdue, but better late than never, right? We spent the month of May in Osoyoos. The weather was unseasonably cool and rainy. We managed to make the best of it, nonetheless. One night the temperature dropped to 2C! Our full service site had cable, a total luxury for us as weContinue reading “Our month In Osoyoos, BC”

Destination: Osoyoos, BC
After a quiet fall and winter spent at home, we are getting ready to head out to Osoyoos, British Columbia for a month. We are looking forward to it for a number of reasons. The last few months have been quite chaotic. And, this morning we woke up to this: Ahhh…..springtime in Alberta. Osoyoos, BCContinue reading “Destination: Osoyoos, BC”
Our Seasonal Site Story
AKA Building the Perfect Campsite. In 2019, we heard through the grapevine of a small, private campground that had seasonal sites for rent. We nearly jumped at the chance; we were tired of tearing our hair out trying to book campsites months and months in advance to get a spot. After talking with the ownerContinue reading “Our Seasonal Site Story”
Energy Bites
Make these before you head out. Oatmeal bite with nuts, fruits, chia seeds and hemp hearts. No added sugar or salt. Gluten free if gluten free oats are used. This is labour and time intensive (took me about an hour, excluding cutting the bars up). You will use a lot of muscles stirring the wetContinue reading “Energy Bites”
Barbecued Peaches
It’s peach season! Is there anything better than a ripe, juicy peach? Yes! BBQ’d peaches stuffed with ice cream and drizzled with a liqueur. Makes an easy and delicious dessert while camping. Take a peach and cut it in half. Remove pits. Place cut side down on the BBQ on medium heat until it beginsContinue reading “Barbecued Peaches”
Happy Places
I am at the beach. Cannon Beach in Oregon, I believe. Definitely Oregon in any event. I am sitting on a branch located on the beach, gazing into the ocean. The light is grey, it is cloudy, and I feel a bit cool, all surprising to me for the time of year (June). This stretchContinue reading “Happy Places”

S’mores and Stretching in K-Country with Friends
We live close enough to Kananaskis Country that we have camped and gone for day trips there several times. In 2017, we had a great time camping there for the weekend with friends. This weekend was the start of our vacation; we carried on after the weekend to Clearwater B.C. https://ourhotelonwheels.ca/2021/04/15/wells-grey-provincial-park/. The weather was greatContinue reading “S’mores and Stretching in K-Country with Friends”
Epic Midwest
In the latter part of May, 2016, we began our epic midwest trip. We started out at Lethbridge, Alberta for the Victoria Day long weekend, then headed east to visit our friend in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Manitoba was enjoying tick season and on a walk through the woods my husband and I both ended up withContinue reading “Epic Midwest”
