AUGUST 1,
2015, SATURDAY; Enjoying a 3 days week-end
A new month
and more adventures. The hose
connecting the grey water to the tank developed a leak so I had to replace that
this morning. Val did laundry then we
went out shopping for a few groceries and to buy the new tags for the “Beaver”
and renew the insurance on the Jeep. It
is hot again today and needless to say the A/Cs are on. We then had a relaxing evening at home
AUG 2,
SUNDAY; Cycling in Steveston, Richmond
We
met Rochelle and Kevin in front of our Park at 10 am and we all drove to No. 5
Road, near the dike, in Richmond. We
cycled to Steveston village but first stop at a Heritage House and visited that
and watched a wedding being prepared for the afternoon on the lawn. We continued on the dike and road to the
village where we visited the Steveston Japanese and Chinese fishermen village,
the Steveston Cannery and a few other historic site. We then stopped at the Steveston dock yard where
we had fish and chips. There are lots of
restaurants and shops here and the place was bouncing with people. After our meal, we continued on to the end of
Point where there is a small Park and we watched people flying kites. One looked like a giant octopus!
Beyond
the Point was the Georgia Straight. We
also watched a dredger working the river entrance, probably dredging the silt
from the bottom brought down the river by the currents. (The Fraser River is
famous for that. We cycled back to our
cars, a total of 23 Km and after loading the bikes we stopped for ice cream at
a local McDonald. We got back to Chilliwack
around 6 pm and picked a pizza for our dinner. R&K had the same idea! It
was a GREAT day!
AUG 3,
MONDAY; BC DAY
Most
of the day was comfortable temperature wise but it did much warmer later in the
afternoon so we had to turn the A/C on.
A relaxing day then we decided to go look around at places for
sale. We did lucked out on a Real Estate
Agent that was at her office and she took us to a place on Knight Road that is
for sale. Price is right and it had 2
bedrooms. She will be looking for more
and make a list for us within the price range we told her. We stopped for a couple grocery items then
came home for a relaxing drink. Evening
with the “tube” and got my lunch made for tomorrow’s work day!
