How to have an awesome weekend in British Columbia:
1) Have an incredible kid
2) Spend three years and eleven months raising him to be a great adventurer.
3) Take him on an epic father-son camping trip to Alice Lake.
Regarding number 2, you don’t need to do much to ~make~ him an adventurer. He comes that way upon delivery! Just keep that fire going!
Such a good time in British Columbia but my main takeaway was: Dang! I got a really awesome kid. He took to travel and camping more easily than most adults. My man became an expert on bear safety, the green line of the Vancouver rail, and noodle parties.
He’s a stellar big brother and I love our big wild family, but getting to toss in some special one-on-one adventures is really sweet.
