JUNE 19, Sunday, Day off & HAPPY FATHER’s DAY!
The four of us went to Quaaout Lodge near our place here and had brunch for Father’s Day. It was very delicious and afterwards we went for a drive to show Kathy & Louie the sites near here. We took them to Blind Bay and the area then to Sunny Brea Prov. Park where there is a beautiful fall call Margarite Falls. There was a small 10 minutes hike on a well groomed trail. The place was in a canyon full of tall cedar trees criss-crossing the trail. The fall was huge and very forceful due to the high water. We took a couple pictures then left. It was time to come back home so we took the back way through Turtle Valley which is a very scenic drive and arrived home around 3:30 pm. We had happy hour and the neighbours joined us including Dan and Heather and John and Marilyn who arrived yesterday to their cabin above us. Ed also joined us. It was a good time and everyone met Louie and Kathy of course.
After dinner, hamburger and salad, we bore K&L with pictures.
JUNE 20, Monday, Visitors leave
Louie and Kathy left around 10 am under a cloudy day. It’s been a bitter joke with them as they’ve nothing but rain since Alberta a week ago. I called South Thompson only to learn that Forest River and Tippert Axle are refusing to cover the claim on my axle. I guess I am going to have a battle on my hand. I cut some branches off the trees behind our place as they are interfering with our satellite; I had borrow a cutter with extension handle and the 10 feet ladder from our neighbour. At 3:30 we had Happy Hour with Bob and Gail then dinner and early to bed as it is a work day tomorrow
JUNE 21, Tuesday, First day of summer
Val went to work for George painting lumber for a new deck at one of his rentals; Bob and Gail also went with Val. My day was the usual raking sites and clearing brush near the roadways. Val enjoyed her day and Bob complained that she was trying to boss them around barely an hour into it. Ahahahaha!
JUNE 22, Wednesday
Same routine! Nothing exciting
JUNE 23, Thursday,
It poured today so Val didn’t work. I ended going to Vernon with the company truck and took two golf carts to be fixed. IT was a pleasant drive as the sun finally came out
JUNE 24, Friday
A quiet day on the front! Val is no longer working as the job is completed but it did get her a nice little pay cheque. Happy hour at our place. Lots of people coming out this week-end
JUNE 25, Saturday
My last day at work, it was busy as usual. When I came home, Ed came over to invite us for Happy Hour at his place. The whole gang was there. Afterwards, Val took Tucker for his walk and Ron came over to pick me up and take me to the far side of the lot to Don’s place for another happy hour. It was a late dinner!
