Golden Ears

This weekend we went camping with my parents in Golden Ears Provincial Park, just an hour's drive from our house. Well, it would have been an hour's drive if I hadn't messed up the directions and taken us on a tour of north Coquitlam, and a detour to Pitt Lake. The Pitt Lake detour was cool - we saw folks filming a western. Movie sets are all over the place here. You can't throw a pebble in the Lower Mainland without hitting a movie truck, or a kid with funny hair and big sunglasses directing traffic around a shoot.

Anyhow, we got there, eventually, and went for a walk down to Gold Creek, made s'mores around the campfire, and generally had a grand time.

Here we all are in front of a giant tree stump:
