So the drive from Seattle back to Vernon reminded us of why we like to winter in Mexico! Winter driving conditions seem to be far hazardous to the health than anything we've run into down south yeat -ha!
This was going through the mountain passes between Seattle and Vernon. Only one slight misplacement on the way, thanks to a crazy GPS that was taking us out into the middle of nowhere, but we corrected in time to make it to Stew and Eleanor Green's place for a marvelous supper (with amazing host and hostess) - thanks again guys!
And while it's snowy and treacherous it can certainly be quite beautiful too!
Back at Mom and Dad's adorable condo in Vernon, we enjoyed a lovely visit and some great games of cards! Of course, they both try to cheat, and even swear at each other regularly - tut tut - ha!
While in Vernon Vic and I went for a few runs, and even PJ was willing to join us for part of them, especially if we walked more than ran - she is 10 you know - so 70 in dog years! She's getting up there.
Heading from there back to Cranbrook reminded us once again of why we love Canada, with its amazing lakes and mountains. These are just a few of the amazing sites we saw along the way!
We even saw the Canadian Rocky Mountaineer, a passenger train that takes you through some of Canada's most amazing scenery in what I understand is the lap of luxury!
Three Valley Gap with its unique ghost town
And back in Cranbrook for another short stay. Thanks so much to JoEllen and Dave (again) for lending us their lovely bright home while they were off in Vancouver visiting their boy! :)
