Still dry around here. We are also getting some of the drifting dust from Mt. St. Helens' It is drifting up this way..Along with the fire smoke... Hoping the rain starts soon and puts out some of the smaller wild fires anyway..!!!  Some of the wildfires here will go underground and burn all winter and show up again in the Spring..It has been really hard to get them all out..!!   Hope you have a more relaxing day tomorrow..Think I will do some baking..  I have been working on my Braille for Eryn..I have not had to use it in so long that I am forgetting most of it..!!!  So this year Eryn is doing Aboriningl Studies..Nearly all of the work and textbooks are in print.There are no audio or Braille books available so between Eryns'  braillist and myself we will have to do it in Braille..!!  She luckily has certain subjectthat need braille all the time so she keeps up with hers..!!!  Hope you have a lovely day..Loads of Love and Hugs..XX

Hi Patricia..So sorry to hear your visit did not go well..And sorry you could not take the bus home..!!  Must say here the buses are usually really dependable..Even in Vancouver they are..You might be squished in with a shoe horn, but they are on time..X Yes seems I have been timing my walks poorly..!!!!  There are so many dogs getting their morning walk and loads of people who go there for visits..We have a great walk way so nice and wide and right on the water.. Not crowded either. It is really lovely, but think I would prefer to be out on the trails.. Am still working away on the painting of the kids.. The kids are not super hard, just some thing I usually do not paint. So taking more time. This one was more difficult because of all the different depths I have in it.. We are standing up in the mountains far in the distance, then there is the forest behind the kids then the huge decorative picture frame that the kids are standing in then the forground ..That  Along with the kids to paint so a huge project.. !!!  But getting there.. i would send just to you to show you how it is coming..Will try to get Nathaniel to help me..!!!

Hi Pat, typical Autumnal weather here, you never know where you are.
Been busy with meeting with installers, getting skip bags emptied, ordered the flooring, still got to order a radiator.  I'm not very good with my condition at the moment, had an Mri scan on Monday, not related to my condition, but all a worry.  My sister from Australia has been in the country for 3 weeks, due to arrive with me on Tuesday, looking forward to seeing her, just the house is a bit up in the air, the plumber wants to start early the fitter wants to come early to rip out.  Anyway my sister understands I will have to pace when I see her, she's staying at my mum's bungalow, which isn't far away. It will all turn out ok.  How are you? still getting about on visits? xx

I am not interested in getting onto any of them though..They only hold between 4 and 12 passengers..So as I am not totally a fan of flying those planes do not make me feel better..!!  Some passengers grt to sit up with the pilot.. Again not my cup of tea..!!  But do love to watch them..Not really crowed either..Maybe 20 people or so out there while I am walking..  Most are visiting at the park benches with the doggy friends..  Been out into the garden..Eryns friend gave her an apple  tree for her birthday..We got that planted along with a rose bush and did some trimming and weed pulling..  No where near done, but feel I did get something done..  Am working on a Braille refresher course..Or trying to  never seem to have much of a day left by the time I get my stuff done..      Hope you have a lovely day..Loads of Love and Hug.s   Sure hope Carol gets back to you..XXX

Hi Patricia. So glad you both got a visit in with June.. Hope she does get up and moving a bit..Maybe with the weight loss it will make it a bit easier..!  I know if I could loose some weight it might make me able to do more..!!!!!  Think I a mjust about ready to head back out onto the trails where I like to walk more..!! The beach is great and it is mostly flat, but all the dog walkers...or more like strollers come out and give treats to each others dogs..More like a doggy coffee clatch..!!!!  So I am always dodging around the puppies who truly believe EVERYONE should be carrying treats for them..LOL...Am making a few friends ..Some are happy to be talked to and patted..  Also we are right at the estuary so watch the float planes take off and land..It is really busy on the River..There are a couple of float plane companies..The service the logging camps and fish farms.. A couple of planes service the resorts up the coast.. So maybe 9 planes in and out a day..Kind of nice to watch them go.
