June 20 to 30, 2016; Visit from Ontario

JUN 20 to 30

A beautiful sunny day on our first day off so I spent some of it on the roof of the Beaver cleaning and washing the vent covers, they were overdue!  Val did the laundry and then worked on her flowers.  HH at 4 pm then dinner consisting of baked potatoe, ceasar salad and a deliciously thick steak BBQ’ed.  After dinner we had a fire and our neighbor Carlos joined us for a while.

Second day off, we went to Salmon Arm for a follow up on my insulin injections.  After we did our groceries shopping, picked up our mail and bought a couple things for the yard and Beaver.  Back at home, we put it all away, relaxed for a few minutes then dinner and made our lunches for tomorrow.

Wednesday was back to work.  The jeep wouldn’t start because I left the ignition on last night so we had to use the Hyundai.  Got it going once back home after work.  I bought LED lights for the rear lights on the Beaver and got that installed; much brighter. 

Rain on Thursday and heavy on Friday…Boring!!!

On Sunday the 26^th, Val’s sister Kathy and Louie arrived from Ontario for a visit.  We had a nice reunion by the campfire and a glass of wine or two!  They rented our neighbours’ house across the road for two nights. 

Monday, I had to stay home to wait for MASCON to installed cable TV and internet (a saving of almost $100/month) while Val and company drove to Kamloops for shopping; We all went out for dinner in Sorrento then came home and sat by the fire for a while but the mosquitos took all the fun out of it and chased us in the house.

Tuesday, sunny and very warm, Louie and Kathy were gone when I got up for the bathroom at 5 this morning!  Good thing we said our goodbyes last night, in case! Washed the motorhome and both vehicles and Val did laundry.

Back to work on Wednesday.  Hot, hot, hot! Up to 34*C on Thursday. 

End of another month!
