Our trip to Canada














Since we flew out Len's grandkids from Delaware, on the east coast, to Idaho we decided to take them to Canada. Len's mother was born in a small town called Field, British Columbia, Canada. This little town is about 30 minutes from some of the most beautiful scenery in North America. We visited Golden, BC where the restaurant, the Eagles Nest, is at 7,800 making it the highest restaurant in North America. It's located near the Kicking Horse River.




A massive mask about three feet wide hanging in the restaurant.



















This is Lake Louise...one of the biggest tourist attractions in the area.














Emerald Lake...my favorite. Len is in the boat with the kiddos.





One of the many fishing trips Len took the kids on.








This is at the Black Lakes (#3).

Cocolalla Lake Views
















Here's a picture from our neighbors new house. What a great view they have. I hope someday we'll have a similar view .... just starting on the building site and have a long way to go.

This is our granddaughter from Delaware standing on our building site....someday down the road. Trees to cut, dirt to move, yada- yada- yada......














Taking off for B.C. Canada tomorrow with all three grandkids in tow. Hopefully, I should have some great pictures to post when I get back.

The Bad Blogger

Ok, so I've been on another hiatus...no excuse except for feeling like I've had nothing note worthy to blog about. I've been off work and cleaning up around my folks ranch...a never ending project. I always feel guilty if I don't have a picture to post and I haven't taken any lately... what to do.
















Got it...here's a picture from the 4th of July on Anderson Lake in Morgan Hill. I went over my friends house and we sat outside and had a nice picnic with this view. Her place is on the water and boy were there a lot of boaters that day...I heard some boats burn up 150 bucks worth of fuel in a few hours, whew!
