Oh no, rain!

After Green Mountain Road I was on Highway 3 to Princeton.  The highway is called the Crow's Nest Highway - check out the sweet logo!

The road was just slightly uphill along a river all the way to Princeton.  I stopped in the middle at the tiny town of Headley, and it started raining.  Not pouring, but pretty legit rain.  I hanged out at the mining museum for a while, and eventually gave up on the rain stopping.  I waterproofed everything I could, changed from sneakers to sandals, and was on my way. 

I'm getting back into the mountains!  The Okanagan was a nice break after the Rockies, but now I'm getting into the Cascades.  Despite the rain it was a great afternoon, although I was happy to reach Princeton and get a hot cup of coffee.

Sticking with the new plan, I'm off to Manning Park tomorrow for an afternoon of hiking.  Anyone I've mentioned it to has said that Manning Park is really pretty and full of great hiking, so I'm excited for tomorrow!  Hope for nice weather!
