Resolved Question: What are your thoughts and advice on my venture through Canada?
I am planning and saving for a trip through parts of Canada next spring or summer with a friend of mine. She is from Texas, and I live in Canada myself. We initially wanted to go to the Yukon for a couple of weeks, but now it's turning towards the Yukon, British Columbia, and Newfoundland. We are planning not to take a vehicle, which I know would be a lot easier in some sense, but we would rather take Trains, Ferry's and a Bus if the need for one is there. I already found some links for a Train from Alaska, through the Yukon. I also found a site for the Train that runs through B.C. If that is not complicated enough without the vehicle on our own. we also plan to camp outdoors, rather a lodge or hotel. So we are packing a lot on our backs from the tent and sleeping bags, to safety supplies and supplies itself. I plan on having a lot more money than needed in case of emergency. Things I have also considered is hostels, as I also plan to volunteer my time throughout each province. So there is a lot of planning to be done. I am just wondering what your advice and view or experience is with ventures like this. I am 23, and I grew up in the country, so please don't take me for naive or this being a first experience. I just wanted some input from fellow outdoor lovers.
I am also wondering how much money that an idividual should save up for moeny, emerceny, renting bikes or equiptment for two to three months of backpacking through the yukon. it turns out were wanting to stay in the yukon mostly, and want to live in our tent's through the entire venture. i looked up campgrounds that you can rent a space for $15-25 a night. is there places you don't have to pay for using tents, could you go further into the woodland? i'm not really sure of the regulations for camping out there. i am also figuring of saving a little over $2000 for the trip itself. not including all the supplies i will need to purchase.

Resolved Question: Suggestions for travel for Austin or Fredericksburg, TX?
My husband and I just moved from NC to Houston and before we moved had this tradition of going to the Blue Ridge mountains for our anniversary in October/November...Gatlinburg, Asheville, Boone, etc. We are looking for something similar to do around this area. I figured I'd get the opinion of others familiar with Texas travel. We've thought about Austin, San Antonio, Fredricksburg, whatever is considered "hill country"...
We''d like to stay somewhere like a lodge or maybe a romantic but rustic B & B. We like small town shopping, dining, outdoor fall festivals, wineries, some touristy mountain attractions/historic tours, scenic driving for leaves changing...
I am looking for recommendations for that type of trip. Thanks!

Voting Question: moving from Seattle to El Paso (military)?
I am moving from Fort Lewis (seattle area) to Fort Bliss (El Paso, Texas). My husband and I are considering having the army move us because if we do it ourselves, we have to front 800+ dollars for the uhaul plus gas and I'd have to drive my truck down all alone... thats a VERY long drive lol
So my question is, what is the best way to do it? And, how do they rate the relocation pay they give you? How do they figure it out? I know they give you money for food/lodging/milage/gas etc if anybody has done a (semi) cross country move, could you maybe give me an idea of your experience, and what they payed you?
Also, do they provide temporary housing until you find a permanent place to live? Or do you have to stay in a hotel?
