Well, we ended up staying 3 nights at the Kettle River.  It was just so relaxing and peaceful that we hated to leave.  We had a little bit of rain last night as we sat around the fire, but, no big deal, we just brought out our handy little umbrella.

 Our neighbors didn't eat too much or stay too long. (Cabbage trimmings)

We love riding on the KVR trails. Although this stretch has a few too many gates to open and close. Lots of dismounting.

Today we enjoyed the drive through Nelson and along the lake.  It's been awhile.  We used to make the trip frequently when Jeff lived there.  Everything is so lush and green this time of year. Such a beautiful area.  Ron enjoys the ferry ride across Kootenay Lake.

 

We are now camped at Crawford Bay, just north of Nelson.  The good news is that it is a very quiet campground and the smell in amongst the cedars is awesome.  Also we have power and internet! The bad news is that it was only 16C when we arrived and it has been mostly raining.  Yes, I know that Medicine Hat was 30C today with more hot days lined up.  One can't always be in the right place.  At any rate, there is a laundromat here and that is where I shall spend the morning.
