Kelley Armstrong Quote
On Vancouver Island, hitchhiking is considered a perfectly feasible way to travel, prohibited only on the highway, where you could get hit. In Salmon Creek, though, we got stranger-danger classes from kindergarten. Ours were probably a little different from most--we were taught that anyone in Salmon Creek could be trusted; it was the rest of the world we needed to watch out for.Some kids did start hitching rides into town when they hit that awkward old enough to hang out in Nanaimo but not old enough to drive there stage. If I’d tried it, I’m not sure who would have killed me first--my parents or Daniel.
