This was a short, easy driving day with a definite end goal, the Mile 0 RV Park<\/a> in Dawson Creek.<\/p>\n

I stopped once to stretch my legs, at the entrance to the Peace River Valley:<\/p>\n

Arriving in Chetwynd<\/a>, Chainsaw Sculpture Capital of the World (I can’t make this stuff up!), is incredible (I need some new adjectives); the town rises seemingly out of nowhere! I had hoped to dump there, but was cursed by one of my biggest pet peeves–single signage. That is, there’s a sign indicating that there is a dump ‘that way’, but once you go ‘that way’ there are no further signs. So, I gave up and resigned myself to full hookups in Dawson Creek. Chetwynd was a surprisingly full service town with a lot of big name stores. It is considered to be the ‘most livable small town in BC.’<\/p>\n

Moreover, my house battery is behaving strangely for the first time since I installed it, so I wasn’t comfortable with the idea of doing two or three more nights without hooks.\u00a0 The issue is that my voltage was only at 12.2 when I parked last night when, after a full three nights on plugged in at 15A, it should have been fully charged at 13.2v! Very worrisome…<\/p>\n

I pulled into Dawson Creek just shy of noon this morning and am comfortably settled in the okay, but nothing spectacular, and quite noisy Mile 0 RV Park. Staff is unfriendly. Hookups and wi-fi are good.<\/p>\n

Now that I’m all caught up, I’m off to explore. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
