THE DRIVE HOME!
Back to our time in BC!
One day Peter took me on a romantic picnic in the woods. It turned out to be either more, or maybe less, than we bargained for! We are pretty sure we saw bear tracks along the way to our destination. No person in their right mind would go around with "bare" feet sliding down the drying rained on pathway! And driving out later we did see a black bear cross the roadway! So I do believe our romantic picnic had the potential of being a teddy bears' picnic.
Teddy Bears' Picnic by J. W. Bratton & J. Kennedy
If you go down to the woods today
You're sure of a big surprise.
If you go down to the woods today
You better go in disguise.
For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain because
Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic.
No matter what, while watching over our shoulders we were able to have a hurried picnic lunch along the river bank looking upstream to the Lower Bugaboo Falls. They were gorgeous! Especially when the sun peeked through the clouds to brighten them up!
LOWER BUGABOO FALLS
STILL SMILING!
On our way to Bugaboo Falls we made one other side trip earlier that day. Our oldest son would be so proud of us! We drove up Swansea Mountain until the Forestry Service Road came to an end and we had to hike the last half a kilometer or so to the top. There are two hang-gliding ramps up there. I cannot imagine running and leaping off, trusting the airwaves to take you upwards and not plunging down into the valley below! But for those who enjoy such adventure what a beautiful place to soar with the birds!
