1-I am on my way to my destination via the scenic route. Less traveled and more scenic than the main freeway.

Prices are of course per litter. About 1/4th of a gallon.
4- The “service station” was very impressive as to what they had available for sale.

On the way I encountered some heavy down pour and as well as sunny skies.
14-There were many signs warning about deer and moos crossing. Sure enough I saw a deer.

16-So many lakes that it will take a life time to fish them all. Maybe more.

18-As I turn to the forestry service road, right away I see a rabbit. I am in the wilderness my friend.

At this point the Garmin was not helpful since the road is service road and not an asphalted (I guess).
I was driving a compact car with low clearance. My cell phone was inoperative in Vancouver and even if it did work, there are no signals here.
As I made several wrong turns and road became full of pot holes with water in them, I got nervous.
If I get stuck in the mud, there is no way I can contact anybody, unless I walk.
I kept back tracking and finally I took the right road and………
19-…..SAW http://i444.photobucket.com/albums/qq163/balickchi/09FHS%20rod%20winner/take%20two/DSCN6307.jpg (http://s444.photobucket.com/user/balickchi/media/09FHS%20rod%20winner/take%20two/DSCN6307.jpg.html)

At this point the Garmin was not helpful since the road is service road and not an asphalted (I guess).
I was driving a compact car with low clearance. My cell phone was inoperative in Vancouver and even if it did work, there are no signals here.
