Terrace

Terrace is pretty.

Mom and I ended up alone for Spring Break one year. We did the usual Spring cleaning in like 2.5 minutes and then decided to go on a girls only road trip. Beautiful drive, I would totally do it again! I was pretty young so I don’t remember much about the trip. It seems to me that Terrace was small but beautiful and I think it was close enough that we drove to Prince Rupert or something for FISH. Damn the fish. At least she got fresh stuff on that trip!

...it’s my hometown, and it’s pretty good if you think about it. Mountains for climbing? Check. Lake for swimming? Check. Rivers for fishing? Check. Mushroom picking? Check. Community theatre? Check. Good public library? Check. Cool funky restaurant with unexpectedly good food? Check.

So, no, not a big place and no Gap or Starbucks. The weather can be miserable – too cold, too hot, too wet, too cloudy. By why apologize for it? Outdoor enthusiasts will like the place and its environs especially, but even as a stop for a coffee on the way to or from the coast, it’s pretty decent!
