June 1 to 5, 2011; visit new grand-daughter

JUNE 1, Wednesday, to Kamloops
We were up early and on the road by 9 am. We drove to Kamloops with “Bear” to get the slide re-adjusted, the couch drawer repaired properly and the leak under the bedroom fixed once again. While in Kamloops, we went to Costco and got propane and a couple other items.
We were back home by 3:30 pm with everything fixed properly and set up once again. I stopped for fuel @ $1.21/Litre then we hit a real heavy rain storm on the way home but once we turned off on Squilax, the road was dry and we were able to set up before the rain began which didn’t last. Early in the evening, the sun came out once again.


JUNE 2, Thursday, Lee Creek
A cool and cloudy day! We didn’t do much today. We went to Chase where Val did a couple loads of laundry and I went to our wine place to order another batch of “cab. sauv.” We came home and after putting everything away, I went for a haircut at Heather’s place then we sat and read for a while or I should say until our friends came over for happy hour and break in our new gazebo. Dinner was late then we watched TV.


JUNE 3, Friday, to Vancouver and Port Coquitlam
After closing and locking everything, we left at 12:30 pm. We stopped in Kamloops for fuel at 1.06/litre then onwards to the coast. It was a pleasant sunny drive. We stopped in Merritt for a bite to eat at Tim Horton then down to the coast where we arrived at Jeffrey’s house around 6 pm. Debbie cooked us all a great dinner then we visited until bedtime.

JUNE 4, Saturday, visit new grand-daughter
After breakfast, we drove over to Joanne and John (Val’s daughter) in Coquitlam to visit and see the new baby, McKinley. What a beauty she is; needless to say we took dozen of pictures over the day. We also spent special time with Jenaya. She had a great time with Tucker, walking him in the park. We had lunch and dinner with them then came back to Jeffrey for the night


JUNE 5, Sunday, Jenaya’s soccer tournament
We were up by 7 am to drive to Port Moody and see Jenaya play soccer in her final tournament. She did well and even scored the winning goal with seconds to go (just like the Canucks game). Afterwards we went for lunch at Robin’s then drove over to their house where we had a short visit before leaving. We drove back to Jeff and had another short visit then left for home. We arrived back at our place around 10 pm and after putting everything away, it was bedtime.
