Well, the Bonnyville experience was shorted lived. I decided that if I was going to tour two up at all this year, and it looks like I might, then I best get a two-up touring bike. This is "Darla", a 2009 Harley Davidson Electra Glide. I have wanted one of these since the very first time I set eyes on one.

Well, spring is here. I have been riding my triumph now since the beginning of February, so that has been great. But, Bear, my dog, is getting on. He is now about 15 1/2 and getting harder and harder to do things. So, I decided to put the motorcycle touring away for the summer and get a camper for my truck. Him and I will be going on Adventures together all summer. We already did a shake down cruise in the unit over Easter and took four days and went up to Banff, Lake Louise and then onto Jasper. After that, we headed south west towards Kamploops and on to Vernon and then came home through the West Kootenays. It was a great four days, we even saw a bit of fresh snow.

Anyway, where is the Camper/Truck. She is very comfortable with a stove, fridge/freezer, small furnace for cold nights and a small bathroom for convenience. We are heading towards Oregon and and California in May, then heading East to the Grand Canyon and then up through Colorado on the way home. It should be a great tour. And I will post to this Blog from along the way.
