Looks like we will be doing more of a waking holidays through Gastown and China Town..They were not on our original plans, but we can switch up and all seem happy to go as I hve not been to Gastown in literally years so it will be nice.. Not been to Chinatown either for ages..Well not since Randy and I got married..I lived in vancouver until I was 15 or so ..So I did head and do a few thins as a teenager before we moved up North..  Not a fan of the crowds, but for a short go I can manage..We will be sleeping nights well out in the bush by Cultus Lake..It is not big but really rural..Am happy..!!!!!   The little ones will be coming with us..After I get some dental stuff worked out..  Looks like the little guy needs 2 teeth pulled.. He has never had anything done at the dentists before and it is pretty scarry for him..Hoping this second trip goes smoother..!!!  They did try to do a huge finning, but it would not stay in and they had to pull the one tooth..The second one we know for sure has to come out..Both baby teeth, but one has an absess and not treated..!!!!!  What the Heck..!!  Hope your Concert is lovely..!!!!  Have a wonderful day..!!  Stay cool ..and Yes take the Umbrella..~

Hi Patricia..Am perfectly happy without the heat over here..!!!!!!!!!!  It was cloudy and we even had a little drizzle this afternoon..Almost did the happy dance..!!!!!!   Best July EVER..!!!!!  Even Canada Day was not screaming hot..Another plus..!!  We did enjoy getting out for a bit.  So glad to hear you were so well taken care of on your trip..!!!!  Think we will have to split up for bits and pieces of the holiday..But we are all okay with that..  Got the horse back riding booked in for the 6 of us..Looks like we can walk p to Casscadia falls so might do a painting from there if I can get a good photo..  Will close my garden.We will be gone for 7 days so not that long..
