Rain, rain, go away

We have not had nice weather since leaving Victoria.  But we spent a nice couple of days with our friends Marilyn & Tim.  Good food, good friends what more could one ask for?  Oh I know; Marilyn played cards with me! She even let me win one game.  The weather wasn't that great but Gerry and I were happy to be inside a nice spacious house instead of a cramped camper.  They live in a beautiful spot.  We were going to cross over at Comox and head down the Vancouver coast through Campbell river and Gibsons, but the weather was so bad we just crossed over at Nanaimo to Horeshoe Bay.  The drive north to Whistler was beautiful and the weather was a bit better, so we stopped at a few scenic spots along the way.  All in all,  a nice day.  We stopped in Lillooet for the night at a campground I found on my smart phone; flush toilets, showers and free wi-fi.  There  was one shower in this cramped building with a toilet for boys and girls (yuck) and the wi-fi only worked when you were in the office which was the back of a camper.  Plus it was pouring rain.  In the morning Gerry got up at 6:30 to take a shower but they were locked, so he was watching, thinking someone was in there.  About 10 minutes later a gentleman came along with a key and went in.  When he was finished he RAN to his camper (Gerry was just heading out to take his turn), gave the key to his wife and she went in.  So we were not impressed. Now Emily I know that you would say hippies would embrace this opportunity and dance naked in the rain and wash themselves at the same time, thanking Mother Nature all the while.  But I have decided I am not a hippie - I am a princess.  Flush toilets and showers (preferably clean) for me, thank you very much.  Today we were going to stop and camp at Wells Gray Provincial park but it was pouring rain so we are now just outside of Jasper at a place called Valencourt.  We are planning to go to Jasper tomorrow.  We had originally planned to camp for 2 days in Jasper but that will depend on the weather for sure.  Thank heaven we have lots of wine...
