Even though we took a new route
we hooked up to the ol' road
near Moses Lake Washington
We even got to sleep in as we
only had a 6 hour trip to our destination
That was a treat!!!
A look out the hotel window
Golfers out
School buses going by
Guess it was time to hit the road
I tried to grab my camera before
one of the pets moved
Didn't make it
THEY WERE ALL
SITTING SIDE BY SIDE
Let's get the show on the road
Breakfast time
Bet these guys wish they were
on the open range
These fellows were having a fine time
They were at Soap Lake
Chief Joseph Dam
Funny how you remember
what is ahead
I knew these cows would be waiting for us
to drive by
I see them each spring
Welcome to British Columbia
Now that was a pretty sight!
O CANADA
OUR HOME AND NATIVE LAND
Now there's an oldie if I ever saw one
An orchard is burning brush
You can only 'burn' on certain days
in the Okanogan
Our son works in Oliver at
Mission Hill Winery
This is also the home of
Kathryn
'Queen of the
Red Hat Ladies'
Canyon Vistas Resort
Gold Canyon Arizona
A new Tim Horton's just opened
in Oliver
Good timing
We picked up lunch there
A plain toasted cinnamon bagle
and
two chicken wraps
YUMMY
Speaking of yummy
I thought this was an interesting
name for a pizza place
Beautiful statues
Coming into Penticton
We're just about there
Up the drive we go
We made it!!!!!
Ol' Leroy sitting in his favourite chair
He is 13 years old
Here's Hunter
He just had his first birthday
Ah
The Blarney Stone
made by the little boy
at Day Care
Ah
The young boy's new hockey helmet
What a great colour
It was raining this morning
It turned into this
*****
Big white flakes of this stuff
The young boy is getting so tall
He is already up to my shoulders
and
is only eight
The little boy is full of life
We are delighted
to be here
