AUGUST 1 to 3, 2007
Worked on the yard and got things ready for the arrival of the kids. Went to town on the 3rd and shopped for groceries, got the mail and check our e-mail. Kids arrived at 8 p.m. that evening.
The girls (Vanessa, Hayley and her friend Allie) slept in a tent they brought and mom and dad slept in the back of the truck. Kevin wanted to "rough it"
AUGUST 4, 2007
After a cold night and a warm breakfast of pancakes and orange juice, we all went into Sorrento, near here, and visited with an uncle of my son-in-law, Kevin. He took the girls on the lake tubing with his boat. We were gone for over an hour and the girls had a riot. Allie went for a flight and into the drink. She loved it. Got hone late in the afternoon and after dinner, we had a campfire and roasted marshmallow. Brook and Karen, our neighbours, joined us for a while.
This time, Rochelle and Kevin slept in the Fiver. Rochelle didn't like "roughing it in the cold"

This Sunday, we took a drive over to Scotch Creek and played mini-golf, bowling and the girls went on scooterboats in a small pond and played while we looked on.
In the afternoon, we drove to Kamloops, about 40 minutes from our site, and had dinner at "Tony Roma" then went to see a movie. Got home late and went straight to bed. Another fun-filled day
AUGUST 6, 2007, Monday
After a good night, the kids packed the tent and their stuff. Week-end ended too soon and it's time to go back to the coast. They left around 11 a.m. and after teary goodbyes, we cleaned up and did laundry, lots of it!!!
Went over to our neighbours, Ron and Teresa to play cards in the evening.
It was a WONDERFUL week-end.

Today, we finished off the laundry and went to Salmon Arm to get this on the net and pick up our mail. By the way, it's been sunny and very warm the lst week and half.
I have downloaded some new pictures in Picasa site
