Last June, I took a road trip from Vancouver, BC to Kokanee Creek, BC and camped along the way. While in the city of Nelson, I met a couple people while dining in a recommended restaurant who told me to take the "longest, most scenic free ferry in the world" that was in Balfour. Just twenty minutes away.
Road Trips
James in His Jeep Getting Java–Kokanee Creek
While researching where I was going to camp, my original plan was to drive to Drumheller. When I saw Kokanee Creek online, it looked so beautiful that I decided to spend a few days there instead. Glad I did.
James in His Jeep Getting Java – The Camping Edition
Maybe it's all the apocalypse writing and reading I've been doing over the last few years, but I got back into camping this summer. This trip I took west instead of south, and I stayed in Canada to visit a few places I'd never been.
SD 43’s Annual MACC Writers Conference
When Cheryl Angst asks you to participate in the annual MACC Writer's conference for grades 6/7, the only response is to say yes and then figure out how to free your schedule. This year's all-day event had around 300 students, and 11 authors teaching them the craft.
James in his Jeep Getting Java – The Penny, Mission
I have a favourite coffee place in Mission, BC. The Penny is an amazing cafe that gives back to its community by supporting an outreach program that offers comfort, relationships, support and food to those in need. (In their words from their site.)
