Posts from — June 2022

Well 2022 has arrived and with a real cold snap. Yikes, it has been cold here and no warming trend in the near future. But every day the sun comes up we are one day closer to spring.

It’s been pretty well the same stuff every day for Brenda and I. We keep busy between music, reading and exercising. We did get out snowshoeing on a couple of the warmer days.

On January 12th we celebrated our 48th anniversary; where the heck did those years go. It’s been fun, it’s been an adventure, it’s been trying at times but we have done it together and it’s always been surrounded by love.

We had one thing out of the normal this January. As luck would have it, my sister Lynda took a bit of a slip and fall on her way to Interior Savings Centre to walk on the concourse level and keep off of the snowy streets. So we have been helping her out with getting to Physio appointments and Doctor Appointments.

The weekly Zoom call with Dean & Judy and GGMA continues. Not always a lot to talk about but it is 40 minutes or so of catch up.

February arrived and it’s still cool. I decided to get back into oil painting and I was able to connected with Debbie Milner-Lively. Debbie is a local artist and she has studio classes every three weeks. I am enjoying it and will continue through to June when we take a break for summer.

March came and it looks to be a lot busier than the start of 2022.

We headed to Kelowna for a couple nights and were able to hook up with our friends Fred and Barb for a coffee. Due to Covid it’s been a couple years since we’ve seen them.

Then we got away to Vancouver for 3 nights and attended the Vancouver Spring Home Show. It’s always fun but this year it was definitely a scaled down version of previous shows.

Brenda was able to finally get all her quilting, sewing, coffee girl friends together after a 2 year hiatus.

In the mid of March we had our annual Sun Peaks Family Vacation. It’s always so special and this year was no exception. The kids had lots of fun on the slopes and probably as much or more fun in the pool and hot tubs. The Sun Peaks Grand is so convenient for skiing and apre’s skiing.

Finally in March we got our first bike ride of the season in on March 29th……. Spring is here!
