Opening Day at Sugar
Brian and the sonic response
He asked if he could do a Sonic Response test. That he does one wherever he goes. Jeff, having never heard of this, said yes, looking around for the equipment and for an explanation as to what it was all about. The camper – his name is Brian – said he would just show him.…
A tribute to Charlotte and Wilbur
Reading has been a lifelong passion of mine. I started out young in life, way back in Kindergarten and Grade 1, far surpassing the expected number of Dick and Jane books assigned. In Grade 7, I read 100 books and was awarded membership of the Super Reader’s Club (that photo is here somewhere…). I read…
My favourite way to make coffee
We drink coffee every day. Usually, two cups, first thing in the morning. My husband Jeff makes it, not me, for good reason: When he and I first met, I showed him my favourite method of making coffee while camping. His eyes bugged out, he shrieked, and then he made me promise to never, ever,…
Sugar Lake Update: Casey’s Hotspots & Anxiety

Sugar Lake: Day 4
It took just one quick look at our view this morning to know it: We have made the right choice in signing on as campground hosts at Sugar Lake Mile 2 Forest Services Recreation Site. Our view this morning. We arrived here on Thursday, after a few initial challenges. We left Oliver Wednesday morning, planning…
Our Summer Adventure: Campground hosts!
I first saw the add on a Thursday in February, on Facebook (just two days after stating, “I make it a policy to never make big decisions in February.”) “We are looking to fill a campground hosting position at Sugar Lake Recreation Site, North of Cherryville,” it read. “We are looking for friendly, outgoing people…
