Crossed the border - October17, 2010

We spent time with Denis' brother in Quesnel. Denis was going to Bella Coola fishing with him but the roads washed out so they went to Kitimat. Because of the rain the fishing wasn't great but they did manage to bring in some. From their we went to Williams' Lake to spent time with out daughter and family before we went south. We also managed to fit in time with friends in Langley before we crossed. We noticed a small leak in our radiator when we stopped so headed to Cummins in Junction City. We are waiting to get in on tuesday to see the damage. We were surprised to learn that Linda and John were coming in on the thursday. We fitted in a couple of happy hours before they left for Bullhead City so John would work on his boat. Now we are getting to know the area through thrift shops, etc.

Summer 2010 - Green Lake, B.C.

Denis and I were Park Facility Operators at Sunset View Provincial Park on Green Lake, B,. C. for the summer. It was interesting as we had never been in that area before, so it gave us an opportunity to find out more about it. We spent the summer with hundred of campers and wild life. We had a fawn and her two new babes in and out of the compond all the time. Denis had a hummingbird fly into the truck and he managed to get up close to it when he took it out. In all we had a great summer and look forward to seeing everyone again. We did have a few visitors throughout the summer which helped it go a little faster.

Granddaughter's Graduation, June, 2010

We attended our oldest grand daughter's high school graduation in Williams Lake. She was lovely in her yellow gown. They had a parade through town with the grads and their escorts on floats, old cars and guads, on horse back, etc. It was great to see all of them and it told something about each grad and their interests. Our daughter was in charge of the food and our son-in-law was an chaperon at the dance, so it was a busy time for the whole family.

Denis and Herb's fishing trip - June, 2010

Denis and Herb went to Kitimat on a fishing trip. The salmon and crab were plentiful but it was too early for the cod. We had a couple of great feasts of crab and Denis canned the salmon so we can look forward to salmon at happy hour this winter.

April 26 - May 5, 2010

We left Kelowna today and spent a couple of days with friends in Savano to deliver some almond tequila. We have a good visit and from there we went on to Williams Lake to visit our daughter and family. We woke to the white stuff on Monday morning so decided to head for Quesnel to miss the snow. But guess what, we awoke to the same four letter word again. We are hoping that in the next few days things will warm up. We are visiting with Denis' brother and wife and Herb and Maureen. As we are not working at Manning Park this summer we are unsure what our plans are.
