Thanksgiving

My sister Karen and Aunt Rose enjoying the warm fall day during a walk to Powers Creek, where we hung out as kids.
Karen and I on the trail to the creek, I'm so glad we made the trek down to the creek(I don't feel so bad about all that over indulging).

A funny thing happened on the way to Mexico...Ken and I looked at each other and said "we should stay" for Thanksgiving that is! So after a full days drive into Washington, we found a storage place in Euphrata and parked the truck and trailer, rolled out the motorbike and headed back home to Westbank to spend Thanksgiving with family and friends, everyone was there and who knows when that will happen again. It is great to have the flexibility to go where and when the wind flies. So another week was spend in Canada eating and drinking way too much, but that's what life is all about isn't it... living it!

South of 49

Ken and I look our to sea on our walk at Roger Curtis on Bowen Island.

Here's me and Ken with his sisters Joanne and Shari at the beach.

Shari and Ken feed the deer at Joannes place on Bowen Island, the deer have it good!

I'm ready to go sailing with Rose and Ron on his 26 ft MacGregor.

The silhouette of an awesome afternoon sail, oh yes the wind did pick up....a bit!

As our first year of official retirement comes to a close, and the weather and the leaves turn we are preparing to head south once again to the Southern States and Mexico. Our last two weeks here in the Okanagan have been spent trying to touch base with as many friends and family as we could, doing yard work around our house(which is now rented) and getting ready for our winter away. Our plan is to be away until the end of April but that plan was made today and we will see what happens tomorrow, until then have a great winter and remember we are only as far away as the Internet!
