From Here 2 There

OSOYOOS, B.C. – Rev. Darren and Karin Siegle were pleasantly surprised on July 6 when a call came from an old acquaintance in ministry, Rev. James Vosper. He and his son Joshua had arrived in Osoyoos on a very hot day on their bicycles! The Vospers are from Plumas, Manitoba, and had come to Vancouver on the train with their bikes, planning to ride back to the Manitoba-Ontario border!

Having made it through some steep passes, they thought it best not to continue in the heat, and asked if they could camp in the Siegles’ backyard. Though they were offered beds, they chose to camp outside, planning to tackle Anarchist Summit east of Osoyoos early in the morning to beat the heat. After a bit of bike-tuning in the garage, safely locking the bikes away, and a refreshing night’s sleep, the Vospers departed the next morning as planned. 

Rev. Vosper always commented how he was still “riding on Osoyoos air” all the way to their destination. You can watch videos of their travels on their YouTube channel: “From here 2 there.” Father and son plan to pick up next summer where they left off, this time Central meeting East!
