Back Home

I had a good time in British Columbia

over eleven days. It does feel a bit

odd now being back home. Only been

home for 24 hours plus. 

I will be home for about 12 days

before heading to Virginia. I will be

there for eleven days. 

It would be nice to travel this way

on a regular basis if it weren't for 

money. I do plan for other trips.

October could be seeing places

around Washington state. Have

to see.

This is Gibson House next to Lake

Okanagan. This is now a park though

Aunt Joan my cousins in BC  mother

grew up there. It was built by her

father.

Here is a view of Lake Okanagan

from Gibson House. I recommend

for you to visit.

Continue on My Canadian Trip

I will end the first part of my trip

Monday in Rose Lake British Columbia.

Tuesday I head further north to my

cousin Susan's place near Big Lake.

Susan and her husband David have

a ranch. They have cows and horses

along with gardens. They are working 

putting the hay together for this coming 

winter. 

Susan's primary job is cooking and 

looking after the grandchildren. Her

 sons Damon and Sam have homes

on the ranch too. They have a business

together in 150 mile house. The 

youngest son Robin, wife Shannon and 

three boys live nearby on their own land. 

When I was here four years ago 

they were building their house. I didn't

see it then.

In the Cariboo

Today is being my second day in

the Cariboo of British Columbia.

I am at my cousin Christy place

on Rose Lake.

On Thursday morning walk we saw

a deer. Didn't seem to be bothered

by me allowing me to take a picture.

She was in a dark spot so I had to

wait so this photo shows the backside.

Later on in the midafternoon took a

dip in the lake. The water was warm 

on the surface anyway.

After dinning saw an  eagle. Before 

bedtime had some lightning. This 

morning just saw an eagle fly looking

out the window. Not the same as last

evening. I hear a loud noise. Could be 

the eagle though don't see him right

now. They do have a lot of eagles here.

   See the eagle on the top of the tree.

Today we are going into Williams Lake

the largest town in the region. I plan to 

take more photos. This afternoon have

a visitor with her grandchildren. They 

will spend time in the lake swimming.

Have a great day until next time. Save travels. 

Hello Travelers

I know that I haven't written here for

some time with my other blogs going

on.

This week I am going to British 

Columbia Canada to visit cousins.

They live in the Okanagan area. I

certainly will drive a lot of miles.

I. Plan to take some pictures along

the way and at my destinations.

I have three cousins in three different

locations. The first I will be at four 

days, two at the second and two nights

at the third.  I plan to visit a few hours

with a fourth cousin Washington state

on my return since she is on the way 

back.

In September I will be traveling to

Virginia for my niece wedding. Another

time to take a lot of photos too. I

plan at least one day in DC.

Until next time safe travels.
