Cluxewe RV Resort Sept. 17th - 22nd

 A couple of photos from Miracle Beach, a nice campground, close to shopping.


North to Cluxewe RV Park.
It took us about three hours, as the road is very rough in places. Found our campsite and got set up. Dave and Kelly had arrive shortly before us and were ready to party, lol. 

Malcolm Island across the bay from our campsite.



The four of us headed off to Port McNeill for a look see. Nice town, very neat and tidy. Just getting the lay of the land, we will be back. 

Worlds largest burl? Looks like someone tried to burn it. 

Saturday we went to the Coal Harbour Museum. It has a lot of local history, we are very glad we made it to this one.
Dave flew for Minstrel Air in this area in the 80's so it brought back a lot of memories for him. Dave has a blog about that part of his life if anyone is interested. https://minstrelisland.blogspot.com/


On our way home we stopped at Port Hardy for lunch, it was good.


Sunday we went to Port Alice. Forty or so kilometers from our campsite. Another nice drive and cute little town. As it was Sunday, most things were closed. A very picturesque Alice Lake along the drive there.



Port Alice

Today, Monday we drove to Telegraph Cove




There is a board walk with info on all the buildings, very interesting. They also have movable lawn ornaments. It seams I have missed a lot of interesting info on this town, it is not far, so I think we will be going back.

I do need to start taking more pictures, stay tuned.

Today has been the wettest day so far but that was mostly last night. Lows 8-9 highs 12-16.

 We are taking a short trip the the North end of Vancouver Island for the next three weeks or so. Saturday, we will be taking the ferry to Powell River and stay at Saltery Bay PP. till Wednesday. At that time we board the Comox ferry to the Island. Not sure what cell service we will get, so I will post when I can. On a side note, I thought I would plant Sunflowers for kicks, they are over ten feet tall. The seeds look like they are to small too bother with. Recent visitors in our yard. See you soon.

Saltery Bay Sept. 13th - 17th

 Nice ferry ride over to Saltery Bay from Earls Cove, as usual, took a couple of pictures up Jervis Inlet. Found a campsite at Saltery Bay PP and got set up. We were surprised how full the campground was but then most everyone left on Monday.We went for a walk and spotted these mushrooms. Very colourful. Maybe someone can let me know what they are, Vikki? Mermaid Cove was our next hike, a little info from the internet.  Mermaid Cove is a very poplar destination for scuba divers because of the 10 ft. bronze mermaid sculpture designed by Simon Morris that was sunk off its shores at a depth of 20 m (50 feet). We had invited Pat's sibs out for dinner on Sunday, of course that's the only day it rained. It did clear up early afternoon and we had a nice supper get together. Shopping and hanging out at the camp site Mon. and Tue. Today we caught the ferry to the Island. Found a site at Miracle Beach and are all set up. Again, we were surprised at how full the campground was for mid-...
