We towed our trailer to Port Renfrew for a week.  The weather was overcast but nice.  Ivan did a lot of fishing with his buddy Doug.  There are now a few less salmon in the sea.

My First Camping Trip......Lets Get Going ! ! !

 
We had a flat on the highway.  Ivan changed it and we went into Duncan to buy a new spare.  Luckily, we found out that all of the tire air stems were defective.  We had them all replaced and spent our first camping night in the Canadian Tire parking lot.

Traffic alerted us of a flat tire. Pulled over and Ivan changed it.

We took a hike into the lovely Botanical Beach at low tide.  Breathtaking scenery.  Lots of pot-holes filled with water and other things to sea.  Riley fell into one of the cold deep water filled holes.
