On Top of the World



Well, I'm not exactly on top of the world, but it looks like I'm close, doesn't it?! Went for a nice little 5 hour hike last weekend - up to a ridge on Wild Horse Mountain. Mr. Agar, Hudson and I were trying to find some caves, but unfortunately all we found was this view. Sad, isn't it!

Road Trips

Don't you just love road trips? I love to hop in my car, put in a favorite CD and hit the road - especially in the summer time.

I have favorite roads, too. My criteria for good driving roads include winding roads, beautiful scenery and few cars. Know any drives like that? My favorites include: the Highland Valley road from Ashcroft to Logan Lake and then to Merritt, Highway #1 from Spencers Bridge to Hope, Duffy Lake Road from Lillooet to Whistler and the road from Osooyos to Grand Forks.

How about you, do you have a favorite drive?

Lorie's 40!

So it's that time of life - all my friends are turning 40. The good thing is that they are older than me - the bad news is that soon I will be as old as them!

Lorie and I have known each other since we were five - can you believe that? My family built a house next to Lorie and her family - the rest is history. We went to kindergarten together - me with my purple mat and her with her blanket - even then she was popular with the boys!

On May 5th, Lorie's husband Pat and her friends threw a big party, complete with 40 purple balloons, snacks, drinks, flowers, chatting, dancing and bags of money! What more could a gal ask for? I must say that Lorie has great friends - everyone seemed to have a great time as people danced until 3 am.

See, old people can still party!
