Fishing trip May 9 - 14, 2009

Denis, Herb and two others went on a fishing trip to Prince Rupert. The weather wasn't great and the salmon wasn't running so they called it quits and came back. They did manage to get some ling cod and lots of crabs. Actually they got a few more than the fishery officer thought they should so it became an expensive trip. It looks like the weather is going to improve so we will go to Williams Lake next week to put in our daughter's garden and green house after Denis finishes his air brake course. Lets hope this course is a go as it has been cancelled twice already because of lack of numbers.

Last week was a little stressful as my brother was taken to the hospital and came very close to not making it out. He is doing better now after checking himself out of the hospital. He is a little

stubborn. Suppose it runs in the family?

Williams Lake May 5,2009

Williams Lake, the stampede capital of the Cariboo.

The granddaughters called again. We went to Willie's puddle to watch them play soccer. Forgot to get any soccer pictures though. We thought we could get some things from the trailer but it was too much of a hazzle moving boxes. We had to go buy some things for Denis to take on his fishing trip to Prince Rupoert next week.

Lunch with friends - April 26 - May 2,2009

Weather this week has been great with it getting chilly at night. I had lunch with my old boss and my 94 year old friend. The motor home was so dirty so Denis got that washed and waxed this week. We had to make a trip to Prince George to get new glasses for Denis as his eyes had changed so much in the last 6 months. Denis volunteered at the Quesnel Home and Garden show for the Legion. They missed him so much last winter.

Ulysses' restaurant, April 24, 2009

Tonight we went to our favour restaurant for prime rib with Herb, Maureen, and our dog groomer and her husband. It was delicious as usual. Denis did some odd jobs around the motor home and I went for a bike ride to our old house. They have cut all the scrubs from the front of the house and cleared the woods in the back. I talked to our neighbour about spreading Taz's ashes, but now I have decided to keep them for awhile. I don't think I am ready to part with him yet.

Happy Birthday George, April 23, 2009

We celebrated Denis' brother's birthday tonight with nine people in the motorhome. Reminded me of the house warming in Desert Hot Springs. The old Ronco was performing again. Everyone enjoyed the chicken and cake.
