Summerland

During our trip to Summerland our Ford Escape odometer hit 100 000km. This momentous occasion took place on Friday Aug 31 at 12:15pm (PST) just outside of Comstock Rd. near Merritt.

   While in Summerland (actually Penticton) we saw this wedding taking place.

 

Our accommodations

 Relaxing at the beach

Fence and Patio Upgrade

Our neighbour is renovating his backyard (early July) so we thought this is a good time to upgrade our fence. Here's the reason why.

 We only had a 2 week time frame as Allison and her family were coming for a visit so here we go. Preparing the frames

 New posts

 

Pouring the cement

 Fresh sand for the patio

 Almost there

Isabel and Sophia enjoyed playing in their new fenced-in area

 especially at the water fountain

 Dinner on the renovated patio

Staining was completed after Allison's visit. Editor's note: there's still some final touches to be done

Las Vegas

Casey and Audrey visited Las Vegas where they celebrated their 41st anniversary.

 The Venetian was having their summer Carnevale

A visit to the M&M store and the Mob Museum

Audrey was hoping to win some extra spending money.

 This is as much as she managed to get.
