mmmmm...bacon....

I am so sorry....but this pic had me screaming with delight and horror for over an hour.
I had to share.

Even if you look away for a moment, and then look back...
still hilarious!

Some weekends are better than others.

Lytton, B.C.-consistently Canada's hottest spot.

Rosamond works very hard. Usually over 65 hours a week. In fact sometimes 80 or more. So imagine my thrill at an unexpected long weekend for us two old birds. (It's Rosamond's birthday on Monday.)
We made hasty preparations and headed out Friday afternoon. It has been a longtime plan of ours to drive Highway 99, north from Vancouver to Lillooet; then do the loop down Highway 12 through Lytton and home.

Friday night we stayed at The Pemberton Lodge. Unfortunately for Rosie there was a film crew staying at the lodge. She has a real film folk phobia. Poor thing.

Come morning we hit the road and made our way north. Not, of course, before having the most DELICIOUS breakfast at the Pony Espresso. I don't have a link, but if you are ever in Pemberton make every attempt to go to the Pony for at least one meal. Rosamond and I first went to this down home establishment in '01. It has since moved to new digs, but the food is still worth a trip to Pemberton.


Highway 99, also known as the Duffy Lake Road from Pemberton to Lillooet, is one of the more picturesque drives in B.C.


There are a few sketchy patches (re:recent landslides), but still an amazing and relaxing way to spend a weekend.

We stopped in Lilloet for refreshments, in Lytton to stretch our legs, and a number of "photo op stops" along the way.

Here are just a few pics. Enjoy.








We stayed Saturday night in Harrison Hot Springs. Never touched the springs mind, as it was "Cowboy Night" at The Old Settler Pub, so we settled in for some Surf and Turf and drank ourselves fizzy.

All in all, not a bad way to pass a weekend!
