Gone Fishin’
Today, the sun was shining, and it was a little bit windy out. After our quick breakfast, we unpacked the kids’ kayaks and set them free in the water. The beach was visible from our campsite, so the kids had fun kayaking to the beach to go for a swim, and then kayaking back. The […]
Bites, Hikes and Birthday Cake
Rise and shine! The girls and I slept in until 9am. Camping is the only time when kids will actually sleep in. Brent and Rowan were up early, so they had headed out on the boat to go fishing. We could see them from the campsite, so Addisyn jumped in her kayak to meet them […]
A Day Trip to War Falls
On the third evening of our camping trip, it poured all night. With no reason to get up early the next day, most of us slept until 10am. Brent and Addisyn snuck out early to try their hand at fishing again and came back a little wet when we were just waking up. Today was […]
Family Time on a Rainy Day
The kids went for a quick swim before we loaded up in the boat for our last fishing trip of our camping trip. Fishing didn’t last very long though, as another storm was rolling in. I wanted to head back to camp before we were caught in it. We settled into the motorhome just as […]
Setting Up Camp at Ten Mile Lake
Rain… Rain… Rain… But we were thankful we had a beautiful Coachmen motorhome to stay in for our second family camping trip! For this this trip, we decided to camp at Ten Mile Lake Provincial Park. It is located approximately 12 km north of Quesnel. This campsite has always been the perfect location to meet […]
Learning New Camping Skills
We all slept in on the second day of our camping trip. The motorhome was so warm and toasty—why not stay in bed and catch extra zzz’s? Brent started the coffee. Best way to start the day! The stove in the motorhome fires up so quickly—and no camping trip is complete without our handy coffee […]
Camping Fun with Family and Friends
On our third day, we wanted to go to Barkerville, as it’s been several years since we’ve made a trip to visit the town. Brent and my dad are interested in mining and the history of the area, so we always learn something new when we go with them. Rowan sat out this trip to […]
Family Fun at Crooked Lake Resort
We were snug as bugs in the RV when the rain started on the second day of our camping trip. Happily, we were still able to hear the raindrops on the roof. Austin and I made a big breakfast in the RV and under the awning while Riel watched TV, Nelo played with his toy […]
Our Stay at Crooked Lake Resort
There is a poster in the girl’s washroom at Crooked Lake Resort that sets out “Life’s Little Instructions.” When I first read it, I assumed it was just a random piece of art hung to decorate the space. But, after spending a weekend with Kim and Al, the owners and hosts of Crooked Lake Resort, […]
The Results Are In!
The results are in for Chemo RV’s 2021 Community Giving Initiative! In these unprecedented times… Alright, wait. Rather than starting this post with what sounds like a modern-age, overused Martin Luther King quote, we’ll skip the adage that has become exceedingly popular during the 2020-21 years. Rather, let’s bring it back to simple layman’s terms: […]

Camping is important to our family and something we try to do regularly. We love exploring new places, cultures and meeting new people. A year after we began to date, […]
Making Camping Memories
More family joined us from Williams Lake for our fourth camping day. My cousin Ashley, her husband Kyle, their kids Brooke and Cruz, and my Auntie Lindee came to camp. They had never camped there before, so we took them on the grand tour of the park and showed them the amenities. Like free hot […]
