UPDATES
~hey Barbara, no we have not yet discovered Caeli’s escape route. Colin left the next day so I hope to work on it this weekend. It takes two of us, one to call her out of the yard and the other to observe.
~sorry Croft but I had no idea that I even had spellcheck on my comments, I will look into it or maybe not 😕
~finally Colin is on his way home. He did stay to see the 2 cruise ships leave today and get the key shot he needed.
This is the one he was waiting for. It was supposed to leave at 4:30 PM today but left closer to 6:00PM. The internet is great, I was able to watch the cruise ship ( Island Princess ) from a Port of Vancouver webcam. At one point I actually saw Colin's helicopter. Pretty amazing, (you can see me in the photo) . Anyway he called and told me he got an amazing shot.
A very poor webcam from the North Shore but I managed to see the Volendam leave on time. You can barely make out the Island Princess on the left.
~Colin should be back by 10:30 PM. However he has no time to rest as he has 2 jobs tomorrow and he has aerials here in Kelowna Friday based on weather. Hopefully we have time for a quick hello but I know it will be more of a crisis management situation, dealing with calls and emails that need to be resolved pronto. Gas here is 143.9 and in Vancouver it was 152.9. Crazy.
~Katie & Louie, thanks for taking care of my sweetie last night.
~I was able to make an appointment today to see my eye doctor on Friday morning, pretty good service I think. Hope to get more solutions to the problem now that I can link it to the computer.
~it was so hot & muggy that I turned the A/C on for the first time this year. I did run it for 11 hours. We actually had highs of 32C today. It was too uncomfortable to work inside without cooling things down.
~about 6:30PM the weather changed. Actually we have what I call a white out all day. Just a white sky and heat. No blue sky at all.
A thunder storm was brewing and let loose with a vengeance.
A good deal of thunder and lightening for over 2 hours. The girls assumed their normal positions, Caeli between the bed and my night table and Carmeh behind the toilet. Bad Mom that I am, I totally forgot about the Thunder Shirt we have for Carmeh. FInally just over 2 hours later the noise stopped and the girls finally ate their dinner at 8:30PM.
~I have pretty much caught up on my to do list so I am ready for whatever our business throws my way.
~poor Mazatlan is being inundated with heavy rains from Tropical Storm Elida.
Yes lots of rain ( 80 mm ) but a .......
...welcome relief from the extreme temperatures of over 35C plus humidity these past few weeks.
That’s it for today…just can’t do anymore with my eye as it is.

Nice that Colin is getting caught up on his work and some warm weather finally showing up there.
