Livin it up- Hobo Style

I think I have drifted down to the dregs of society. Yup, thats right, I am living the life of a hobo. How did this happen? You may ask...well, here it is. I hope my mother isn't reading this.
(Actually I hope she is- but after I tell her so I get her initial response :D )
So, after leaving the wonderful place that is Creston, I got on the bus and came her, Oliver BC, population...well, looks to be about the same as Creston on the population front. Quite different on the people front though- there are so many Indian people here! And if you interpreted that as East Indian, you are right. If you interpreted that as First Nations, you are also right! Good job, everybody! :D
Yup, so it seems it is more of a multicultural place, somewhat less plentiful of rednecks, horray!
Right, so here is what happened here-
I met my friend from Courtenay, who fortunately has a tent, and brought my little hiking stove from home, so we had that. Unfortunately, I don't have a mattress, pillow or sleeping bag (although I do have a shawl, which I pretend is a blanket lol). Somehow, without all this, I still have on very big and one regular sized blanket....uh oh looks like I'm gonna have to split this post into two because the library internet turns off every half hour...so I'll post this now and continue in a couple minutes.
