Solo Canadian RV traveller, retired accountant, snowbird Details: I have been traveling solo to the SW USA for the past 13 years to escape the Canadian winters (except for this past year because of Covid 19 restrictions). I am a member of Escapees and FMCA and travel in a 32' Class C motorhome towing a Geo Tracker. I spend most of the time in Arizona or California boondocking on the desert. My hobby is creating unque jewellry from copper or silver wire and gemstones. Home Town: I live in Milk River, Alberta, about 10 miles from the USA border, but my home town is Atlin, British Columbia. known as the Switzerland of North America. It is a small town located in Northern BC 25 miles from the Yukon Border and about 50 miles (as the crow flys) from Alaska. Milk River is on hwy 4, the Canadian extension of US Hwy 15. We are 40 minutes from Lethbridge and about the same distance to Shelby, MT. Writing on Stone provincial park is nearby as well as Waterton National Park. Favorite Boondocking Locations: BLM land near Yuma AZ, Tecopa, CA, Martinez Lake, AZ, Death Valley, CA Skills or Expertise to Share: Jewellry creations, rock hounding

Dottie epitomizes what a Boondockers Welcome host is. Her place is not large but it is so right. She invited us to join her for happy hour, she gave us great nearby travel tips and mostly she is a genuine traveler and knows what travelers want. We will return there in a heartbeat. Thank you Dottie!

When I intended to finalize communication with Dottie, I was traveling in high altitude mountains in Montana and had no signal. At the day of my arrival Dottie had business out of town. Recipe for disaster?? Not at all!! Dottie had alarmed her neighbors of my potential arrival and I was received by them like the long awaited king! I was wined and finally dined at the neighbors places and we had the best of conversations. And then Dottie arrived and it was like a family reunion. I had never expected to feel so at home in a hosts world, simple down to the needs but full of heart. On the groups recommendation I stayed for another day and one of the neighbors, a gifted allrounder mechanic, was truly helpful in diagnosing my car’s transmission problems and making me confident that I could go on until I find a professional with all their professional diagnostic tools. Again: like an old friend. By their recommendations, after delaying a day anyway, I visited the UNESCO World heritage site “Written on stone” in their vicinity. Highly recommended - if you are like me you will spend hours there! Overall: a host with a “family” of neighbor friends and everyone out to make you (and your dog) feel really good whilst visiting them. How could you ask for more?

We stayed 2 nights at Dotties place. Each night it was quiet and had a great place to park. We were welcomed and loved staying. The neighborhood was very quiet.
