A Zero Day In Manning Park BC, Canada

9/2/13
Manning Park Resort BC

Awoke a 8:30am after sleeping like the dead, we dressed in clean clothes, (what a novel idea) and went for breakfast. 
After eating we wandered into the bookstore and looked at identification books on berries, flowers and mushrooms. Peggy found many of those that she'd photographed,  including our 500 mile marker mushroom, (it happened to be poisonous!)  I was glad to know that by washing our hands with soap we'd dodged the bullet and would not have neurological damage after all! 
 Back at the lodge I took out my tent and sleeping bag to dry them in the sun before packing things away for our bus trip home tomorrow. We relaxed and read while watching our stuff dry and TareBare came by to chat awhile.  He'd gone on a short hike to see a nearby lake, Peggy & I both wanted to go see some things while we were here but they all entailed walking and my feet just wouldn't stand putting on the shoes again. 
Later that evening TareBare met us for dinner and by 8pm Peggy & I were in our room, everything cleaned and packed for the bus trip tomorrow morning. 
Robin had answered our email and would be waiting for us at Semus, Washington just across the border from Abbotsford, BC where our bus stopped. From Google maps it looked like a 3 mile highway walk straight to the border.  All seemed in order for us to get home.
