About Me

Lee Creek, North Shuswap near Chase, B.C, Canada
We went full-time Rving in October of 2005! We retired from full time to part-time as of the end of 2015. 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!

August 1 to 7, 2013; Gateway, Lee Creek, BC


AUGUST  1 to 7 2013; Gateway, Lee Creek
Back to the grind this Thursday morning under sunny sky and warm weather which has now beaten many records in the Province.  We also have a fire ban starting today! 

August Stat Week-end (BC Day) was hot and the Park was very busy and so was Gateway.  As a matter of fact, we have never seen it this busy here in Gateway which is great in a way!  There was a hamburger and hot dog cook-out Sunday evening so after work, we stopped in for a couple burgers then came home for an early bed.

Tuesday, days off!  I called Rochelle yesterday to find out how they and the kids are doing.  Val went to Tai-Chi in Chase then we went to Salmon Arm for our usual shopping and mail pick-up.  It took us over an hour to do 10 KM just before Salmon Arm because of constructions; we travelled the distance between 5 to 40 Km/Hr.  We finally made it, did our thing and then came back home which was much faster but still heavy with traffic.  HH was at Ed & Judy with Bob & Gail and Allan and Dana joining us.  We bought a cooked whole chicken at SAVE-ON-FOOD so we had that with small potatoes and St-Hubert BBQ.
 
Wednesday, I went back to S.A. for Tucker’s haircut; we couldn’t get an appointment in Chase until September which was too long.  I also got a haircut then we came home.  Spent the rest of the afternoon working around the yard then at 5 PM we went to Bruce and Joyce to join Marcel, Bob and Gail for Happy Hour.  For dinner, we had BBQ pork chops with a nice salad then watched the tube and to bed...Tomorrow is back to the grind one more week
