So this weekend we hit up Squamish and Whistler for an overnight stay that turned into what peeps refer to as a gong show here in Canada. Basically, anything that could go wrong went wrong. We didn't arrive until 3pm because of "traffic", the campsite was full and there was a ban on fires and bbqs because of the dry season. 

So we had nowhere to sleep and no way to eat our hotdogs. 

We brainstormed a little....using hot water in the public washrooms to warm the weiners, knocking on doors asking to borrow a grill despite it being illegal and offering beer to a couple of rednecks in return for the use of their firepit. Go figure, we settled on the latter and it worked. Larry and Glen kindly allowed all 13 of us to raid their firepit and portable potty. We then proceeded to drive 30mins off the highway in the dark until we found a clearing to set up camp, using the light from our van headlights. Turns out their were some crazy rocks under our tent but luckily I wasn't stuck with them (what's a few rocks between friends Blair?!). 

Good times HA! So good we're planning another camping trip for next weekend...
