Lake Trip Round 2

R.D. has just informed me that tomorrow looks like the day to go on our 2nd part of the lake trip. Althought I can think of other things to do...I have to admit that the first leg was alot of fun. I am so happy that we have decided to become a closer family and make the best of these next few months together. There will always be days ahead but as the kids grow up fast I realize that they won't always be around. I think if we make the best of these days now we will have no regrets. I look forward to seeing what is in store for us the next few months.

Okanagan Lake Trip

R.D.'s smile says it all.
 He had the great idea of taking our 16 ft open sailboat on a journey from the top of the Okanagan Lake to my parents in Kelowna. We took 3nights and 4 days to tour the beautiful lake and all it had to offer us. We found 3 great free campsites along the way and made memories that will last a lifetime. The kids loved it and if all goes well we might continue on to Penticton to finish the lake journey.
