If you have never been or it's been a while since you have been there, there have been lots of improvements. Highly recommend it. http://www.bcvintagetruckmuseum.org/

Then head for lunch or coffee. I'll be flying solo, Gloria has her book group meeting, so she most likely won't have time to look at trucks. I don't know what's wrong with her!

It's sort of your stomping grounds. I am up for a breakfast, lunch or coffee. I might bring my neighbour with me. I don't think he has ever been to the museum.

Most of our favorites are gone. The Elements Casino is just across the parking lot. Rusty's Pub not far away .

I have not been to a Dutch Pannekeok since 1977. I am not kidding. I had some kind of pecan waffle and I remember it was big and tasty. Two of my favourite food descriptors. Although, pub food is pretty good sometimes. Remember that pub in Abbotsford we went to after Shady Grove? It was called Lou's. Well, it burned down. I only mention it, because it had really good food. It has been rebuilding for years. Longest construction job ever. But is suppose to open again sometime this year.
I've never eaten at a Casino. Can you double or nothing on your meal?

Saw a truck with your name on it. I don't mean to buy, I mean literally your name on it. I got my neighbour to drive because the radio station said the roads were bad on the south side of the river, however they weren't. Lloyd gave us the tour.

I am thinking of driving my 53 3100 up in July to the truck show on July 7th (all back roads). Is it a pretty well attended? And can I see the museum at the same time?
Be nice to meet some of our northern friends too.
