When I arrived in the Jasper campground, Whistler, I was jealous of all the young couples I was seeing around. They all looked happy together and ready to explorer together. I was envious, but that is not to say I am not enjoying myself, because I certainly am and I am cherishing every moment with my mother. This evening though I’m not so jealous anymore…

Across from our little site a group of 2 early 20’s “kids” pulled in with a toddler. They have been play yelling and shouting since they got here. And I’m sorry, I may be a 80-year-old man inside, but I think it is rude and disrespectful to be that loud in a campground with many other people. It doesn’t matter what age. Then of course there is the yappy dog beside the other folks, barking at every little bug that flies by. Seriously, it scared off all the elk.

Anyways, this is home base for this evening, prepped for the rain tomorrow.
