APR 29, Friday, HOME, North Shuswap, BC
We were ready to go by 9 am but first, we had to stop at a tire shop to get a new tire on “Bear” for the street side and the spare went on the curb side for the time being; I will have to get that spare changed later. We left after an hour of tire work and stopped in Summerland at Travel Land RV to see about a wheel alignment on the trailer. After a lengthy discussion, we decided to go home as there was no way for them to assure us it would be fixed today. As he said, it is Friday and if any problems occur, we could be stuck here for the week-end. We were assured that it would be OK to drive on it without any other problems.
We stopped in Enderby for lunch then went on to Salmon Arm where we picked up our mail and then went to home in Lee Creek, North Shuswap. We arrived at 4 pm, parked and set up and now we relax. HOME SWEET HOME!
We went to visit with Marcel and Donna for a while then it was time to call it a day!
We drove 166 miles in 4 hrs @ 42 MPH average! Now the summer routine begins!
APR 30, Saturday, Lee CreekWe had a great first day at home. Almost everyone is back now. We went to Sorrento to get some meds refilled until we can see our doctors; bought insurance for 6 months for the car then headed to Chase to make an appointment to bottle our wine, do the laundry and buy some groceries. We thought we would go to the local pub and have lunch... that was a mistake!! We had two beers each, two hamburgers and the total cost...$42 including the infamous GST. WOW!!! What a rude awakening. I guess we won’t be pubbing in BC anymore.
When we came back and after doing some work around the place, setting up for summer, we spoke to George and Paulette then we went to Bob and Gail for happy hours with about 8 other people. We had a great time and now it’s dinner time then relax in front of the TV. It’s been sunny with cloudy periods and fairly warm all day.
