Prince George, BC

Stan . . .

We arrived in Prince George, BC on May 12th and left on May 15th. Prince George is the largest city in the northern part of British Columbia with a population of approximately 75,000 people. We were able to choose between several large supermarkets for our grocery shopping as well as get service work done to the truck (also had work done on an balky EGR sensor that would intermittently give a check engine warning light). Prince George also has a Costco, so we also stocked up on various bulk purchase items on our trip to Costco. The above picture is a rather imposing wood sculpture located outside one of two Prince George Visitor Centers.

The chainsaw sculpture in the above picture was located inside the second Prince George Visitor Center. This sculpture was on loan to the Prince George Visitor Center from the city of Chetwynd which is touted as the Chainsaw Sculpture Capital of the World.  We hope to be able to see many more of these chainsaw sculptures as we will be traveling to Chetwynd after we leave Prince George
