Things went pretty fast after my days in Kelowna. The daily journals stopped because I just didn’t have any time to write them. On Monday I said goodbye to my family and I left Kelowna for the Kootenays via the … Continue reading Road Warrior Tour 2012: Epilogue
Saturday, Aug 11, 2012 I know this statement does not provide any profound revelations, but it needs to be said- Victoria is a damn beautiful city. After waking up and having a hearty breakfast, John- who also rides a motorcycle- … Continue reading Day 9: Her Majesty
Wednesday, Aug 8, 2012 The cool thing about Powell River is that I was able to see Vancouver Island in the distance out the window of my motel. The town seems completely dependent on Ferry schedules (since two Ferries are … Continue reading Day 6: Islands in the Stream
Tuesday, Aug 7, 2012 I went out of my way to get to Lillooet for a reason, and that reason was staring me in the face first thing in the morning. I was excited about that, but also aware that … Continue reading Day 5: Walking on Sunshine

Tuesday, 3 July 2007 Today is the day that Ryan & Silver’s Excellent Adventure 2007 kicked into gear. The day started out with a bad omen: a large wolf spider was crawling on a pile of clothes I had on … Continue reading Day 4: Good Day Sunshine
