Finally, 2 days of sunshine...

The week has started out sunny and

even reasonably warm.

The trees finally have some leaves on them and

the flowers in their pots are growing.

It feels so good to be outside.

Lots of high water in the creeks flowing into the lake

Love seeing these different photos of Claire.

Making more pink polar bears as gifts.

Happy to see the sunshine....

It has been such a dreary spring.

Fog, rain, wind, low cloud cover, more rain and wind.

I know it is flooding in many places, even here we had had power poles knocked out and flooding.

Happy to report we will have a week of sunshine.

We didn't want to miss a chance to go on a picnic,

this sunny day by the lake was perfect.

A little crocheting, taking some photos, enjoying the lake.

It was a wonderful day.

Sunshine out on the boat...

We were invited out on our friends boat for

a cruise on the lake and a picnic.

It's lovley to have friends that share their day with us this way.

It was a very hot day,

lots of activity on the lake and beaches.

It was wonderful way to spend such a warm day.

We didn't go swimming but in some places on the lake the temp was

70 degrees in the water.

Almost warm enough to swim.

Thanks Bonnie and Gerry for the day spent on the

BB Lou.

Out and about...

I went out to Peachland,

smoke and all,

walked along the lake,

took out my chair, table, and enjoyed my lunch.

Only a couple of boats on the water,

a few geese and a very bold duck.

Took some photos of a tiny

fruit stand here in West Kelowna.

The sun still glows red in the morning sky.

High Water

The water in Nelson at Cindy and Tim's place is the highest it has been for nearly 30 years..I wondered how Cindy had gotten this photo? had she walked on water, did she row her boat out..nay nay I say...look at the bottom photos..a crafty solution was found...they usually have sand passed the 3rd wharf......the good news is the water went down by an inch!

Before the Farm Chicks...








On the way to the Farm Chicks show, I stay overnight at Cindy's sleeping cabin on the lake in Nelson....I arrive before lunch and meet Cindy in town to check out her favorite haunts...thriftiness is a gene we share ...we must be related! After scoring some wonderful finds we were off to the lake and getting me settled in. Cindy has the most wonderful comforting touch to make my stay so memorable. Fresh flowers in a vintage ironstone vase that she found while thrifting with me when she was here last...my favorite snacks, fresh cream for morning coffee...chocolates on the pillow and a gift of a vintage jug...filled with small hand milled soaps...how in the world does she ever get anyone to leave?
This is the view of my retreat for the night..how wonderful is this..built by her and her man! Thank you my dear friend for making me feel so welcomed and loved!
