Work Fri, Sat and Sun. Off to Williams Lake on Tues. for a job interview. Hopefully pick up my leveling kit on the way there or on the way back. Gonna be down at the coast on June 4 and 5. My dad is being sworn in as the BC bigwig with the elks. Gotta find a camping spot for those two days.

There ain't no camping in Surrey. You might try Golden Ears in Maple Ridge. That's about as close to Vancouver as you're gonna get.

As for the long weekend... Had to work Saturday, off Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Was planning on going to the Cloverdale Rodeo, but it was friggin pouring rain. We'll try again tomorrow.

Six sites listed for camping in the Surrey area. A few more as you get out towards Chilliwack. The Elks thing is in Van but don't want to stay any where too close to Van.

Those ones in Surrey are private RV parks. You could camp there, but it's not like a provincial park campground.

I hope to make some time on Monday or Tuesday evening to maybe get together for a coffee or something.
Yea all the campsites are privately owned but we are kind of spoiled and like all the hookups.
