Reunion and Roof















We got invited to Ron's family reunion, so we hitched up the trailer and headed up to the Cariboo . It was held at a little lake out toward Little Fort. The road (more like a trail) down to the campground was pretty rough and slow going (one way only as well).

But the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow so to speak, was well worth it. It is a beautiful spot and we had a good time relaxing, visiting, playing horseshoes, watching the kids play and of course 'eating'.

Ron's Mom celebrates her birthday at these yearly events and she is in great shape for a lady her age. After the weekend we learned about the forest fire in our area back home and the evacuation. When we learned we couldn't go back home, we just stayed there.

It was a stressful day or so trying to find out about the fire and our house, but all was well, and we are so thankful for the many friends and relatives who called with concerns and offers of help.

We had planned to reroof the back side of Ron and Louise's house this summer, so we seniors got busy on that. Looks good eh!!
