*Who are we?*
We’re Victoria & Craig! In 2021, we decided that we needed to make life a little more exciting, so we bought a used fifth wheel and completely renovated it. Then, we sold our house in Tallahassee, Florida and hit the road full time in our RV! We’ve traveled all around the United States (and Baja Mexico!) and fell in love with boondocking in our RV at the most beautiful places. In 2023, we upgraded to a brand new Brinkley RV Model Z 3100. You’ll always find us on some kind of outdoor adventure, whether it’s hiking the Grand Canyon, rock climbing in Yosemite or surfing the shores of Baja Mexico.

As a Canadian, I love watching border crossing videos. About 80% of the Canadian population lives within a two hour drive of the US border so we are more conditioned to crossing. I find that crossing into the US is easier than coming back into Canada. For us, the Canadian border officers are mostly concerned with collecting tax on alcohol. Only had border officers on either side of the border look in our RV once and he just opened the door and looked in. Didn’t actually step inside.

2 approximate conversions. 1.) kilometers to miles: divide km in half, then add 10% of the first number. e.g. 100km ÷ 2 = 50 + 10% of 100 (10) = 60 miles -- actually it's 62 miles but close. 2.) Celsius to Fahrenheit: double C and add 30. e.g. 20° x 2 = 40 + 30 = 70³ F

Make sure you stop at the Mount Robson Visitor Center to take in the views. If you visit Jasper after Banff is is on the way to Highway 97 or it is worth the short short trip from 97. The campground is very nice and only $28 CAD if you want to spend a day or two exploring the area. There are some nice hikes and waterfalls in the area. Wells Grey is also a nice stop. You can spend a day driving to then end of the park road then stopping along the way for a few amazing waterfall hikes. There are two very large ones. Canada does an amazing job with their provincial park system.

Worst experience was one time crossing from NY to Cornwall, Ontario and they decided to search the 5th wheel. Checking drawers they found a gun lock that we had gotten a rv rally and then had a terrible time convincing them that we did not have any guns in the rv. They searched every cupboard and storage area before finally letting us go. Have crossed many other times with no issues. Coming back from Alaska and crossing at Vancouver they checked the refrigerator.

With Craig's southern accent that is the issue. My husband and I had the same issue with them asking multiple times about firearms and then asking if we owned any. My husband asked "What difference does that make if they aren't with us?" They got even more mad and told him to just answer the question. We were truck drivers at the time and going to pick up a load. A Canadian driver told me later when he heard me telling the story that they heard Scott's accent and they think all southern Americans are gun crazed lunatics.
