Moving

First, I must apologize to Kara for having spelled her name wrong.  Sorry Kara with a K.

We are moving to Lone Butte at Lori's and Clancy's house on Sunday or Monday, it got just a bit cold at Goose Lake, so road trip.

Talking of road trips, we went to Kamloops for a bit of shopping and visited with Sam & Jill and lucky for us, Sam's bro, Claude was there.  We had a great visit.

Then yesterdays we drove to Clearwater to get MJ's driver's license renewed.
Today we are (guess where) in Clearwater for the farmer's market and laundry.

Our friends Doug and Vera have left Goose Lake on Friday (yesterday), so pretty quiet these days at the lake.

Tks you Janice and Gerald for correcting my spelling of Kohlarabbi and telling me what it was.

Will publish pics later.

Busy week.

We had all kinds of visitors and friends coming to camp.

First there was Sam & Jill’s son Tad and his wife Aletha, Jill’s sister Jane and her hubby Murray and last but not least, Sam & Jill’s other son Marty and his partner Cara.

Along with that, Casey and Louise came to visit one day and our friend Elizabeth and her two dogs Agnes and Hector visited. 

Yep, all in the same week. Whew.  We had a ball.  Fishing, telling fish stories and lies……. by the campfire.

Everybody is gone now, however, Sam & Jill will be back Sat or Sun.

Aug 8th, Wednesday

Rain, thunder and hail.  Lasted just long enough to get everything wet

Aug 9th, Thursday.

We got up with all intentions of going fishing and neither one of us felt like it.  MJ suggested that we go for a road trip to 100 Mile house and on the way stop in Lone Butte to say hi to our friends Clancy and Lori.  We did just that, unfortunately, Lori was on the coast, but had a great visit with Clancy.  He gave us some potatoes, carrots, beets and a veggie that we had not heard of before, but tastes very good.  It is called a Collaradi, may not be the right spelling, but is awesome. 

Aug 11th, Saturday, to Farmers market in Clearwater to sell some of our crafts, library, bottle depot, groceries and hopefully a hair cut for both of us.

and I thought there was no such place as Timbuktu.

 

Doug and Vera have arrived, Don, Marla and their daughter Lan visited.   Kathy and CJ are gone.  C-A-S-E-Y and Louise visited and Sam and Jill have arrived.  No dull moment at Goose.  Gotta love it.  We have had nice sunny days, thunder and lightning shows, rain and what not, but we are still happy to be fulltime rv’ers.

 

Today, Aug 2.  Very windy.  Just sat at home and worked on our crafts.  Went for a little walk in mid afternoon.

Another road trip

To Clearwater with CJ & Kathy.  Their truck wouldn't start, so they got it towed to TNT in Clearwater.  We had tried to jump start at the campsite, but couldn't, however, Terry at TNT jump started and it worked.  Now we are waiting for it to get charged up.  Very hot today.

some pics to share

Road trip

Thunder and lightning from late afternoon yesterday and all night.  today is nice and cloudy.  Decided to do a road trip with CJ & Kathy who had arrived on Saturday while we were in Clearwater.  Our friends Charlie and Lynden left this morning.
Oh great, it started raining, here in Clearwater.  Can't seem to get rid of this wet stuff.  
Will post pics later.

Laundry day.

we are in Clearwater again. 
Weather finally turned nice about 2 weeks ago.  We had a couple really bad thunder storms in between, but pretty warm these days.  Our friends Linden and Charlie arrived at the lake on Tuesday and of course, with their little dog Gracie MAY.  We are expecting the arrival of Kathy and CJ either today or tomorrow.
