So we have money to purchase our Land Boat of rainbows and radness but alas once again our efforts have been thwarted by the evil Visa Travelex card that only lets us have a thousand treasures per day… Faaaarkk.

The ferry ride was nice though! 

The proud owner of Barry… (so proud) Mike, kindly let us stay in his land boat last night as we had nowhere to stay on this crazy part of the island with its concrete car parks of suburban dreams blown away by men in day-glow uniforms and ear muffs…

When searching for treasures in downtown Victoria checkout Hernade’z for all your spicy taco needs. Their food is organic, locally sourced and tastes flippin’ amazing because they produce food they’d be happy to eat themselves. Yates St. Victoria, BC. www.hernandez.com

Neil Young’s on the beach was the first album to roll of the old school clarion tape deck. As we settled into Barry and let our imaginations run wild for the future of Barry and our conquest of Northern hair follicles.

The morning brought new problems… How to get a cash advance for our treasures when the tellers get the squirts every time they see our foreign visa card of destiny and depression.

No has been the most common answer…

Good news folks… MISO SOUP IS THE NEW LATTE

After 3 days of No’s and leaning crossed eyed on counters dealing with make up addicted bank tellers with suspicious bottles of hand sanitizer, we have all our treasures and are ready to purchase Barry and take the solemn oath of the land pirates. Yaaaaar!

* Crystal Meth card is a found object.

Thank you Judy of Van city bank for loving not hating, and lots of helping.

* Brenda

Dear Brenda Mcguff the Canadian bag piper from the Chop Shop, we would like to let you know that you tickle our souls with your funny sayings, thanks for your drive way offer and for showing us poutine on park benches. Love Tom and Zach.

Captain Yom is in command of sailing Barry on our glorious eve of departure. We smoke a parting joint with Mike, then Barry’s 454 Chev rumbles of into the horizon…

Finally Barry has joined us…
