We left Vancouver on Friday morning in the dreary rain, only to arrive in K-town to a torrential downpour, but on our way, we managed to hit almost every kind of B.C. weather including snow, sleet, rain, wind, and blinding sunshine. Hard to believe it's April.
As we arrived in Merrit, the radio was playing a song about a small town and as we drove through the deserted street, some tumbleweed rolled past. It was so windy, Alex had trouble walking...
We were starved, so we stopped for food at the Cowboy Cafe...or something like that. It was deceptively spacious inside, with interior, flushable outhouses and seemed to be a family run operation.
The menu had photographs of every dish they served and the food looked yummy enough, until I noticed a big GREEN BLOB on one of the dished. Now, the fare at this place was pretty much limited to breakfast and burgers and the fluorescent blob looked out of place and was somewhat frightening. Until we realized that every picture had a blob of a different colour. It turned out the menu was a very accurate representation of the food being served, right down to the LIFESAVER on each plate.
Oh the adventures of the Interior!!!
