Being that this weekend is the May long weekend, and unofficially (at least in British Columbia circles) the start of summer, I thought I might get in the car and take a little road trip. My sister and the kids are camping near Deception Pass in Washington, State, and I’m seriously considering hopping in the car later tonight and making the trek down to hang out with them.

It’s supposed to be 30C, which is rather nice weather to be sitting outside. I have to see what the state of my camping gear is in the back of my car, but assuming it’s all there are prepped to go, I might head out around 8pm and see if I can get across the border.

I’m going camping in Washington this weekend, too! I hope the lineups aren’t as bad as they predict.
Have you heard? Peace Arch is closing 4 out of 8 of its booths starting today until construction is complete in 2010, and the I-5 will have one lane closed each way from Vancouver to Bellingham for repaving.
They’re saying the peak times at the border crossings will be between 6 am and 8 pm.
I can’t wait to get there, though!

[...] at Burlington but is worth the extra miles. Deception Pass connects the mainland to Whidbey Island, Duane’s over there right now so I’m sure he’ll have a recap or some photos up after this [...]
