Take a Break

A well deserved break from the driving through the Canadian Rockies as the maintenance crews force a rock avalanche to make things safer, there were four guys up on safety lines, poking about, this dust storm was the result of a rock the size of a volkswagen coming down onto the road.

Columbian Ground Squirrels

On the hills in Sun Peaks, these little critters were absolutely everywhere, popping up as sentries to warn each other as we walked along, it was funny later (as we enjoyed dinner in Masa's) to watch them tease numerous dogs and puppies, popping up like whack a mole figures and vanishing in the nick of time, good exercise for the canines.

 

Sun Peaks

Days one and two up at Sun Peaks resort, fantastic place in the summer, boy was it hot yesterday but of course, to cool down there were ten dollar jugs of Grasshopper beer out on the patio with the hummingbirds, Columbian ground squirrels on the hill, wine in the hot tub in the evening (fingers and toes like prunes) so we're managing through it all.

Crab Cake

No Mister Bond.....I expect you to die......muhahahahahaaaa!

Back on dry land

Of course, water is far better when it is served as an ingredient in beer...

Cheeky...

Just to prove that Karen, and her sister Sue, have also been in the Pacific, here they are, down at Robert's Creek.
