5C's Que Pasa

Once, when we lived in Vancouver, Colin went to work in slippers! Once, while living here, Colin travelled all the way into a Kelowna shoot with the garbage &  the doggie ‘you know’ in the back of his car!!  He later said he wondered what the smell was! But yesterday, he left for a photo [...]

The good news stems from this article on violence & crime in the state of Sinaloa.  Is a nutshell it says that crime is down 29% in Mazatlan, robberies are up but homicides are down!!  Good news indeed, we might get robbed but not murdered The bad news is that D Day has been set [...]

Dear Patti & Simon, Welcome to your new home in Holiday Park Resort!  So happy to have you as neighbours!! You can imagine our surprise when first thing the morning of the 23rd Patti is knocking at the door.  I was still in my nightie and hadn’t even brushed my teeth yet!!  Great to see [...]

We are working a big project and I had hoped to share it with you today but it isn’t quite ready.  Perhaps tomorrow. Meanwhile we continue to enjoy life here in Kelowna but I have to admit more and more thoughts of heading south to Mexico are creeping in.  I find myself thinking of possible [...]

Fortunately I looked down and saw the problem.

We were invited to a party, a happy hour.  There are often many such late afternoons here in the park but the weather has affected plans this summer and there have been very few gatherings.  This is probably the first year we haven’t had a happy hour at our beach site followed by campfires and [...]
