At Doug's

It's been a great trip so far visiting with everyone. I really enjoy the fact that I got to visit with my newest niece Stella. She is definitely a cutie pie. It's been a bit of tough trip for me in that it feels a bit like a good-bye trip as we are moving so far north. It will cut down on the visits with everyone. I am really glad that Doug (my father-in-law) drove all the way down to Osoyoos to pick me up so that I could spend some time up in Kelowna with him.

Doug the duck herder

Gord (his brother) is in town from northern Alberta so I've had a brief visit with him as well. They are currently out shoveling gravel while I steal some computer time. They offered to let me join them but I graciously declined. Actually I believe I offered to foreman but I think they more interested in a strong back rather than a strong opinion. Since I only have the one to offer here I sit.
I'm hoping to make it to Castlegar by Thursday afternoon, so I'll post again Friday.
