    Well, I'm up at 4am. Need to get out of here between 4:30 - 5:00. Have to travel a 120 miles to the ferry. None of it freeway. Figuring about 3 hours to Port Angeles. Then it's a 90 minute crossing. Ferry leaves at 8:20am. Still have to fill out paper work for customs, when I get there. Should put us in Victoria around 10:00 am. Looking forward to the weekend & seeing everyone again...

    The ferry was full. Had to wait for the 12:45pm sailing. We arrived in Victoria at 2:15pm. On the way to Port Angeles, a truck passed me going the other way. Two rocks came off his truck & hit my hood & windsheild. And my drivers side headlight. Chipped the paint on the hood & chipped the new windsheild. The headlight was also dissabled. Had to purchase a new headlight in Victoria ($20). Had a wonderful time in Canada. Only had 3 cars represent the MCCI. At least we had a good time. Cliff took the honors with his 71 Grabber. Way to go Cliff! Thanks for the hospitality. Here are some pics. Enjoy!!!!
