I tried to go to Hell today but I only got as far as Spuzzum before it started snowing. Hells Gate was a couple of hundred meters higher up so I turned around quickly and went down in elevation to Hope where it was raining.
I went to PetroCanada to cash in my $28 million dollar lottery ticket. The nice lady lied to me and I went home broke.
I got delayed by a coupon for $1 extra large double double Dark coffee at Tim Hortons. I did not win a car today either on the Roll Up The Rim. I did get a free sample of Dark coffee as a consolation prize.
Drinking coffee while on the Honda Forza in the winter is a dumb idea. I had to pee in the ditch in Spuzzum. Gloves, rubber gloves, helmet, jacket zipper, rain layer zipper, vest zipper, armour pants belt & zipper, rain layer belt & zipper, jeans belt & zipper, untuck sweat shirt, untuck shirt, untuck tee shirt, untuck under shirt, long under wear layer 1, long underwear layer 2, underpants and then due to the cold I could not find it, piss all over everything and then reverse the process in the correct order after a few tries.
Sorry, 5 cups of coffee, gotta go.

Re: Snowing in Spuzzum
I know where Spuzzum is-just beyond Hope.
Almost got talked into partnering a placer claim there once.

Re: Snowing in Spuzzum
In the blink of an eye we are past Puzzum.
Where exactly is Puzzum, Dave? Nowhere, Jones.

Re: Snowing in Spuzzum
I don't know where Puzzum is but Spuzzum is near Spuzzum Creek, BC, Canada. It is 50 km north past Hope on the Trans-Canada Highway beside the Fraser River, 192 km east from Vancouver or 4305 km west from Toronto. It has a listing in Wikipedia and Google Maps so it is an important place. There is no fuel or stores so bring your own.

All kidding sideways - true the forum does have a brief window for editing. Owner/forum(s) rules.

If something still looks wrong after you've submitted it, jump that edit button and fix her quickly! Voila! You'll get use to it after awhile. We're all on the same road here. Cheers aguim and enjoy

Re: Snowing in Spuzzum
Well, I finally made it to Hell (Hell's Gate Airtram (http://www.hellsgateairtram.com)) But Hell was closed and they would not let me in.
I made it past Spuzzum to go pee at Fas Gas in Boston Bar. The owner lied to me about my lottery ticket. I think it is a conspiracy.
There are extra rocks on the road from the mountains and extra waterfalls from the melting snow. It rained on me as usual.
The Michelin Power Pure rear tire seems to be OK. There is lots of gravel on the road so you have to be careful.
A quick supper and then off to the Hope Cinema Club showing of Saturday Night Fever with John Travolta. I used to be very involved with the very large Abbotsford International Air Show. John used to quietly fly in to see the show in disguise.
