2nd Half Of My Trip Home

The last week of my visit was very busy, but had lots of great visiting.

Grandma & Grandpa A came over for the day & Ray brought the kids over as well.






Picking strawberries in Papa's garden.




Playing on the grass.




Kane on Auntie Tasha's motorbike.


Dad & I (well mostly Dad) changed the grill on the car to 1 with driving lights.

Dinner at the Royal Coachman with Jess & Dave...

A visit to the River City wouldn't be complete without a trip to Miracle Beach.

Dawn & I went to Kitty Coleman Woodland Garden & wandered around.
















She's SO darn cute with her prego belly!


Had 1 last visit with my nephews... It's always the hardest saying goodbye to them knowing they will be different kids the next time I see them.

I went for 1 last motorbike ride...

Playland with Auntie Diana, Uncle Dan, & Siearra.

We were there for 9 hours, yes 9 hours & it was SO much fun!!!!!

The log ride... we got soaked!

Auntie was terrified on the ferris wheel & all I could do was laugh...

Now this was my favourite part, what is it like to be a hamster...
I couldn't stay on my feet & it was exhausting!

A Visit Home

First thing I did before even going to the island was get a haircut from my fantastic hairdresser Jazzmin at Pizzaz in Langley:) Great haircut and it only takes quite literally 5 minutes to do!

Although I have no pictures from my visit my wonderful friend Sarah & her family who were kind enough to have me stay with them. Sarah & I went out for sushi & saw the movie 'The Help' which was 1 of the best movies I have ever seen.
I also enjoyed a Fort Langley visit with my fantastic massage therapist Kim, this was just a social visit no massage this time. We planned on going for a walk, but the rain & wnd disagreed so we took in the atmosphere at Wendle's coffee shop.

What have I been up to since I've been back in Campbell River? Well...

I was so excited for a visit with my nephews, Kane & Kole...
They have grown so much!

Canning salmon...
While canning, I killed time by completing the pleasure craft operators certificate...




Taking in awesome sunsets...




Riding my motorcycle...




Today Dad & I went fishing at Wowo Lake.

My dinner...

As we were cruising along 3 bull elk came down to the lake for a drink & swim.
It was AMAZING!

There were so many frogs in the lake.

Wild Blueberries

The Huckleberry branches were packed with berries!

The view toward Middlenatch Island.

Yummy trout on my plate!


Tonight I went to Rotary Beach Park where they have the memorial garden.
Yesterday was the 10 year anniversary of my Grandma (my Mom's Mom)'s passing.
I took some carnations, which were her favorite to where we have a plaque in her memory.



I love her & miss her every day...

I have also had visits with my friends Jess & her hubby Dave as well as Cheryl, but once again no pictures! I really need to start taking more pictures when I'm with my friends. I always have my camera in my purse but never think to pull it out. Silly me! Next week I will...

So that's a recap of my first week in Campbell River.
1 week to go... so stay tuned for the next post!
