We are really excited to be home and enjoying the nice fresh fruit and veggies that you can get in the northwest. It is so hard to go fruit picking and only walk away with having picked a portion. Now if we could just convince some of our kids to eat the fruits. I guess if you didn’t grow up here you would not be accustomed to it.
Our trip back to the USA July 9, was good and restful as we stopped enroute for a couple days of R&R. We had 10 days to move into a house and get settled before our trip to Kelowna, BC. While we were up in Canada there was a wildfire not too far away, but thankfully we were spared any problems apart from soot on our van. We had a great time with Erika’s mom and husband,2 sisters and a brother with their families. We spent the time catching up and going and picking more fruit. Apricots, cherries, peaches and more. J
We have been able to catch up with some of our family members but not all. Hopefully it will not take too long till we can get together with everyone.
