Time slips away







Once again time has gotten away on me and I've not updated our blog. Well wait no longer! Let's talk about spring break (March 26-April 12). On the 28th Lynda, my girls and I headed for Mission BC where we spent 5 nights with John, Geordie & Melanie. It was so nice just to sit back and 'be' with one another!



One highlight was a planned day in North Vancouver where we'd stop in and see Mel's roommate Nor, another good friend (Gakkum), the Cleveland Dam & Ambleside Beach. As a child I can remember going to Ambleside with my mom and dad and even now I have a picture on my fridge of mom and I on the beach with a marshmallow in each of our mouths. I've had similar pictures taken of the girls and I with marshmallows in our mouths too - we're not at the beach but all the same.



The girls found a few treasures on the shore and we were treated to the sighting of a sea lion about 20' from the pier we were standing on.

I'm sure there MUST be moss on the trees at home... under the snow. I wish.




Geordie and I tried to capture the drops on the trees but this is one of the best I could catch.

Until next time...
