| Two two RV Gypsies enjoyed this campground,
even though there was no sewer hookup. Kim and Merv Harvey own the campground,
and they greeted the two RV Gypsies with big smiles, as they worked on improving
the park by putting in a flower garden. The campsites were not packed tightly
together, which was nice. There is a big wooded area by the river for tents
and small RV's. And really clean laundry and restrooms for all. The two
RV Gypsies do not brag about campgrounds very often partly because they
are not campers and do not use most of the amenities that might be offered.
They just set up their RV and go off enjoying the day, returning to sleep
for the night, of course. |

 Kim
and Merv have a sense of humor. Here are SOME of the rules and courtesies
while at Canyon Creek Campground:
 1.
Drive slowly - 8 Km/h - Dead Slow!
2.
Quiet Hours 10:30 PM until 7:00 AM shhh! (Unless you invite Merv)
3.
Swimming in the Creek is at your own risk. Drowned kids float to the Fraser
River in about 1 hour and float into Vancouver in about 8 days. |

two RV Gypsies while at Canyon Creek Campground and RV Park in Hixon,
B.C. There was Wi-Fi at the park, but the two RV Gypsies could not get
it connected. They closed the gates to the campground at 10:30 P.M. and
reopened the gates at 6 A.M. for security purposes. No gate code - just
locked gates. So it is not advised to go out late at night here. |

Some campers did come and park near the two RV Gypsies for the week-end.
As the two RV Gypsies made new friends, everyone got together around a campfire,
talked, played bocce ball, admired the stars at night, and had a great time.
The other RVers were local people and on occasion they called the two RV
Gypsies "Florida." When they left they said to the two
RV Gypsies, "Have a good time in Alaska and dress warm, if you Floridians
even know what it means to dress warm". What a great sense of humor.
Everyone exchanged information to keep in touch. Thanks you for letting
us get to know you and we hope to hear from you soon. |

the FIRST time the two RV Gypsies sat around a campfire while traveling.
It was enjoyable because of the fun company. |
