Well If I get my truck back from the garage on Friday I'll be on the Ferry at 5:15am Saturday morning heading to the mainland. I'm meeting up with Willyqbc and firebird in Quesnel to do some deer/bear/moose hunting for two weeks. First couple of days we'll be concentration on getting me a freezer buck then we'll be heading northwards for moose. Hopefully we get some decent pictures and video to share on this trip.

Watch out for holes in the road Marc, those dipwads up there do not always put out warning signs and those holes can really beat up a vehicle at highway speeds. Trust me and Ex on that one! :oops: Fred

If you head back via Lillooet/Pemberton/Whistler/ Horsshoe Bay, give me a call.

I';m heading out on Sat AM for sheep, but I'll be back by the time you are heading home. I'll buy you dinner/lunch/breakfast/beer if you come through Whistler at the rigth time!:grin:

Be careful of hunting wiht FIrebird. He likes to use liver shots!:grin:

hey Gatehouse I'd love to give you a call if I'm in that area on the way back, but I don't have your phone number ;)

Well I got my truck back from the garage this afternoon. Had the upper and lower ball joints replaced, rotars, bearings, brake pads, and the piece of pipe that runs from the cat to the mufler. After seing my visa bill i thought that was it my trip was over. Well I've got to say I've got an understanding wife.

Pretty much got the truck loaded up and I have an early morning. Good luck to all of you and play safe.

Marc.

Good luck on your trip Marc, may the wind be in your face and the sights and game be plenty.

Our wives must be sisters :) My trips usually start out like that as well :)

Have fun

Well I made it to Quesnel in one piece, got turned around in Vancouver a couple of times before I got on the right track. I was greeted by the beverly hillbillies.:mrgreen:

Still waiting on Firebird to finish the three stooges.
