Kayak Trip 08

WOW!!!! What at trip, this is what its all about in beautiful BC. These pictures are from a Kayak trip in April 08. We spent 3 days Kayaking in Pitt Lake. 20 Min from Maple Ridge, you would swear it was in the middle of the wilderness. The lake was extremely cold but the weather was beautiful.

What have I been waiting for

Thank you Larita for your comment and getting me to just type something that is current in my blog. Yes it has been since November 07 that I last posted something.

With the record gas prices and uncertainty in the commodity market it has everyone on the GREEN band wagon. Sure I do agree that we need to do our part to be nature responsible, but it is not the average joe that causes the largest impact of polution on the enviroment. It is in fact industry.

I would like to put our my opinion on what will happen to the Green option: When gas does come down from its abnormal high, due to corporate oil greed, the appeal will slowly wash away. Truely what we all want is cheaper gas. You can say we need to go green, but who will anti up and say they will trade in their $30,000 to $50,000 gas vehicle for a 75% loss just so they can get a hibrid that costs $15,000 more which will pay itself off in fuel savings in over 10 years. I dont think anyone will just throw their money away for a potential to save the enviroment especially the average salary person.

Bryson's Christmas Party





This is Bryson's Christmas party with his Danceing pals. Also present was Curtis Byson's brother-inlaw. A good time was had by all. Bryson did a great job on the turkey and co-ordinated all the men in the kitchen. There was alot of food, and good deserts. We were very please to have fresh cabage rolls that Curtis made, since we spent all day Saturday trying to hunt some down unsuccessfully.

This IS happily ever after!!!!

As you may already know I am here in Vancouver (all by myself) starting my new job with FedEX. Which by the way is very exciting and a great place to work thus far. So not only did I get to move to Vancouver to enjoy the nice, sometimes rainy weather, but I am happy with my job. I know it is tough to imagine that it could be possible. Not only did it work out with the job, we were able to get a fairly new house, minus a yard of course. But it is the foot hills of the mountians.



Yes this is me at Golden Ears parks, 10 mins away from our house. I think I am really going to like it here.

Once Anne and the kids get here in Jan we can all share good times her in Beautiful BC.
