About Me

Our present "small but comfortable" Wagon is a 2008 Camper trailer(TravelAir Rustler), pulled by a 2008 Dodge Dakota, 4X4.l. Our home is now a Gated Community Park, in Oliver, British-Columbia, Canada. I retired in 2005 and my Life Companion, Valerie, retired October 1, 2006 from nursing. We invite you to follow and share our new adventures and mishaps. Life is but an adventure full of dreams yet to be fulfilled!

November 24 to 27, 2013; beaching

NOV  24, Sunday; San Felipe
Finally...Sunshine is back!  Val went for her morning walk with the girls then after breakfast, we vacuumed the floors and carpets; lots of sand around and dusted the place down.  Today was football day so guess what I did!?  We had a very cool wind so still wore jackets and long pants for HH.  Dinner was left over then we watched the “Good Wife” then the music awards.

 
NOV  25, Monday;
Sunny; in the mid 70’s!  We watched the “American Musical Award” which I had recorded.  Val went for her walk with Elaine only as Charlotte was out doing laundry.  Things happened early here, usually by 7 am most people are about and the Park’s employees are cleaning up.  In the afternoon, we played another round of Bocce Ball then we relaxed some more (these are such hard days) and HH at 4 pm.  Dinner and the tube for the evening

 
NOV  26, Tuesday; Shopping
After Val’s walk, we went into town to buy some fresh vegetables from a local farmer.  We also stopped at “Calimax” for some beer, wine and a couple other things.  We stopped at a small restaurant for lunch then came home but first stopped at a local “pandaria” (bakery).  In the afternoon we played bocce ball and won again; there is just no beating us!!!  HH then BBQ chicken with a salad and we watched a couple of recorded program that we missed Monday.

 
NOV  27, Wednesday; Geo-Caching and beaching
We decided to go to the beaches to find some shelves and “sand dollars”.  Ken and Elaine came along.  We drove to our first beach, “Percebu” where we did find some shells but not as much as we were told by Charlotte.  I guess the beach has been picked over.  Anyway we drove to another beach and found a “Cache” along the way.  We signed the log and continued on to the beach.  I should mention that the beaches are far from the main road so we have to drive across the desert on side road which are very sandy so it’s 4-wheeling all the way.  We got to the beach and walked to the water edge which was quite a ways as it was low tide.  We did find lots of “sand dollars” and even a shell with a small sea weed growing on it that looked like a tree.  We got back just in time for HH.  Dinner was left-over’s.
I uploaded quite a few pictures since my last posting!

I know what sand dollars are but what are shelves?
