We stopped in Greenwood for some snacks at the bakery, and just by chance a long time family friend, Zoanne (Zoey), was standing in line behind us! I always think of her when we go through Greenwood, but never actually thought I’d see her. We had a quick conversation, I got to introduce Rob to her, then we continued on.
The Boundary Country is so pretty. It’s a lot like home, actually, only prettier (to me anyways). We gassed up in Rock Creek, then headed for Osoyoos.
The highway going down into Osoyoos was very windy, full of switch backs. We were able to stop at a pullout above the city to get a couple pictures. The view from up there was great!

We stopped in Hedley for a moment to let the dogs out, and grab a picture of the mine at the top of the mountain.

We finally pulled into the Princeton Golf Club RV Park around 2:30. Rob waisted no time setting up a tee time. I think we were out there by 3:30! He had a rough start with the first 9 holes, then nearly took out a guy sitting at the edge of the 10th fairway. His ball took a wicked bounce back off of a tree, and it sounds like it hit the guy in the back of the head. All was fine though; he wasn’t mad or anything.
Rob found this course a bit challenging, with lots of hills and dog ears, but it’s a pretty course and he enjoyed the challenge. He said he liked the back nine more than the front.
Our neighbors next to us told us there was a bear wandering around the campground while we were gone. It turns out we just missed it on the course, because the group ahead of us apparently saw it on the 18th hole. He was probably right near us when we finished up, and we didn’t even realize it. Hopefully we’ll spot him tomorrow and get a picture!
We did a quick trip into Princeton looking for propane, but with no luck. Hopefully the fireplace will keep the trailer warm enough through the night. For the rest of the evening we just stayed in the trailer and watched some T.V..
