Gray Monk Winery

We went for a wine tour and tasting at this winery and ate dinner there afterwards. It's a beautiful place!

We went to the beach for a few hours today. They had several diving boards AND a zip line!

Family Day by the Pool

Today was spent with lots of family in and around the pool. Good times.


I believe the ages spanned about 70 years.

Photo Friday Challenge: Beauty

We went for a hike in the forest that was burned in the Okanagan fire several years ago. It was amazing to see all the burnt trees, especially as a backdrop to the fireweed that was growing everywhere!

Road Trip!

It's been awhile since I went on a road trip. Hitting the open road gives one such a sense of freedom and leaving the work day life behind!


Our sweet ride. This is a Syncro that just had a Subaru engine put in. It definitely helped give it some power!



We drove up through the Okanogan in Washington up to the Okanagan (yes, they spell it differently) in British Columbia. We stopped in a small town that had a farmer's market and they had this map of the goods that are produced in the area.



Where else can you see two horses pull up to a mini-mart at a gas station? This is in the last town before the border called Oroville.
