******************

 

OH NO!!!!!!!!!
 

I forgot the power cord to the computer in a hotel room in Washington State
 

NOT A GOOD MOVE

We were 10 days without the computer
Since then we have had lots of trouble with the internet connection
Here's hoping it is behind us now

 

 

Still in BC
 

Saturday evening

Hunter and Gwendolyn trying on Garen's Halloween costume

 

Something wrong with this picture??

Dogs taking over the living room!

 

Gwennie getting a manicure before the big trip

 

Lyndsay....the wine maker

Have to say Lyndsay worked long long hours

Tis the season for grapes

Good job Lyndsay!!

 

Joe was in good shape after his surgery

Graham was in good shape in the vineyard

so..............

We decided to leave for Arizona a few days ahead of schedule

and

Many thanks to Nana Gail for taking over so we could get on the road by 11 a.m. on Sunday morning

 

Down the driveway we go

 

Goodbye Tightrope

 

Heading down Highway 97 toward Oliver and Osoyoos

 

We are over the border and into the

US of A

 

The picture says it all!

 

The picking of the apples

 

Chief Joseph Dam

 

Interesting...............

We have travelled this route before

However

We have driven from Arizona up to BC

Never

BC down to Arizona

It is like seeing everything from a different view

 

For example.............

Never knew about this rock at the lookout

 

 

 

Whoa

Where has this truck been????

 

 

This guy looks like he is checking us out

Stopped at a MacDonald's

for an afternoon treat

Chocolate sundae

It sure tasted good

 

Coming up to the Columbia River

 

We crossed the bridge

 

Now that would have taken a lot of work

to get the rocks up the hill

 

Early Monday morning

Heading towards Nevada

 

The clouds were amazing

and

So low!

Yum Yum

 

I first thought the birds were Canadian geese

They're swans

 

We're into Oregon

Clouds were so low we could drive right through them

 

 

 

I just like the colours in this photo

 

There are going to be some happy cows and horses

 

This was a beautiful sight

We were about an hour out of Ely Nevada

 

 

 

On to Las Vegas

Not many cars on the road

 

Happy Halloween

 

This sign caught my eye!

 

 

 

Getting closer to Vegas

 

Landscape changed again

 

Vegas is over there

Check out the smog

 

 

 

YEAH

 

What's this I see??????

 

LUNCH

IN-N-OUT BURGER

Another of 'the boy's' favourite places for a burger

 

We're home

Stephanie and Rod opened the house for us

Now ... that's a gift!

 

Backyard view the next morning

 

Evening

 

IT'S GOOD TO BE HOME

 

LIFE IS GOOD
