    My sister lived on Vancouver Island for 50 years. When they retired a few years ago they moved to Gabriola Island, it's between Vancouver Island and the Main land of B.C. Canada. I live in Washington State so it's been easy to go see her (except during the pandemic). It's such a beautiful place as is western Washington where I live, way more green then eastern Washington, which I also lived in for about 5 years. May your journey continue taking you to beautiful places.

    FYI .... In Canada, permanently mounted propane tanks don't expire or need to be recertified. Only removable propane CYLINDERS need to be recertified. (example: used by Travel trailers or for BBQs)
    Unfortunately, many propane-fill staff are not aware of the difference. You can double-check this on the MOT (Ministry of Transport) website regarding permanent built-in RV propane tanks.

    Those were some lovely cars! Dunno if the driver of the last vehicle to arrive explained, but that used to be a semi tractor for pulling trailers. Lowered, repositioned the front axle, replaced the hitch with a pickup bed, and much more to be sure - there are many garage hours logged into that one, for certain. ❤️❤️😎👍xx

    As a Canadian, A) I am so sorry! Can't understand how hard it is to get propane in BC!
    and B) I have to tell you we rely heavily on Google Maps to identify things we need, and call ahead to make sure it's available/open.
