Today we still have snow on the distant mountain. Most mornings we turn on the heat to warm things up a tad. Unusual, you bet. People are wearing jackets and long pants. It might be time to head to Mexico sooner than later. Folks are still out and about but not so happy. The gardens are growing very slowly. Here at the park we are allowed garden plots. Some grow veggies, others flowers. Nice to be able to dig in the ground if you choose to. Of course one has to keep an eye out for the pesky rabbits.

We were graced with a visit from friends Connie & Jeff on Monday. Having just purchased a Heritage home in Ladysmith they are taking a bit of downtime before the renovations start. We had a great, although too short a visit. Over a great salmon dinner we attempted to solve some world problems. Just before dessert the rain gods appeared so we moved the table out and moved the fire pit under the umbrella where we stayed warm & dry. We were rewarded with a beautiful sunset. It was sad to say goodbye yesterday but we know we shall meet in Mexico very soon.





A very relaxed Jeff


Baby Bella is doing well. Her Gramma held her for the first time ever on Monday just after Bella had a blood transfusion. Hopefully the little one will start gaining some weight now.
Colin is almost finished his photoshop work on the Edmonton jobs he did….now we can move on to my favorite part…invoicing and getting him onto local jobs once the weather clears…


The end to a perfect day!

For some reason I could not get these to load on my original Baby Bella page. Sorry it kinda ruins my story line seeing these photos first….quick skip to the next blog & than back up here. I think that perhaps I exceeded my photo limit or something! I tried for over an hour! Sorry!



Thank you Colin for these three special photos!

Yesterday, Saturday the 26th was a perfect day. Colin washed the outside of the RV while I did yard work, then we both cleaned the inside of the RV. Well now that everything was looking so good we had a bit of a party. Our neighbors have a grandchild born January 22. Bella has been suffering since birth and at 5 months weighs only 9 lbs. She underwent open heart surgery recently at Children’s Hospital in Vancouver and is hovering so we decided to put some positive energy out into the universe. We had a bit of food, lots of music & refreshments and when the wind died down for just 10 minutes we launched some candles. Most interesting was that the almost full moon emerged from the clouds at that very moment! It was a special evening. Hang in there baby Bella!

Getting into the groove!
