AN AUTUMN ADVENTURE

My girlfriend Andrea and I went on a road trip to the mountains in September. I had a free media weekend at Three Valley Gap Chateau, which is located at the edge of a lack where three valleys converge in the mountains near Revelstoke B.C. There's a ghost town there that I wanted to write about for my travel blog and website.

It had been some years since I had travelled into that part of the Province so it was quite exciting to head off early one Saturday morning on a gloriously warm, sunny Autumn day.
We passed a lot of farms and ranches along the way. The scenery is fabulous all throughout the Province of British Columbia. Our stay at the Chateau was a lot of fun. I'll write more about it on my travel blog and I've already written some things on my Living the Writer's Life blog as well. http://wynnbexton.blogspot.com



On our journey back, we took the back roads through the Interior of B.C. The day was as warm as summer -- a real Indian Summer day! There were several farms selling produce. This was one of the most intesting ones. So we stopped, took a lot of photos, bought some produce and home-made sausage (and I bought home-made peanut brittle that was simply to die for!)

A very pleasant journey, and a whole lot of new memories to write about. Check out details on my travel blog: http://travelthroughhistory.blogspot.com
and I think I'll do a story for my travel web site at www.travelthruhistory.com
