The clan is remarkably calm considering our departure is a mere 10 hours away. Once again, our formerly organized home has been overcome by umpteen piles of road trip paraphernalia. Most disturbing is the can of "Counter Assault Bear Deterrent Spray" that seems to undermine the importance of other packed items such as Q-tips and dehydrated peas. After a final stint of weed-whacking our yard, Ron has just re-entered the house with a cold Corona in hand. Guess he's officially in vacation mode. Nick adds to the family's anticipation by quoting a line from Smokey and the Bandit: "We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there." Greg adds, "I sure hope they serve Canadian Bacon in Canada." And so the adventure begins...
Be careful. I just saw a video on my comcast account. Jack Hanna was hiking where you are going and a baby bear came after him. He used pepper spray to make it go away! Happy Trails to you!
