Lovely hosta in the gardens at the lookout

 

Here's the gang

 

Hooray! We finally made it! Here we are at the lookout over Kitimat

 

The gorge at Moricetown, nearing Kitimat (or it sure seemed as though we should be getting close)

 

Taken at a rest area not far from Houston

 

This is the hillside where we were stopped. The only green is from the grass growing on the forest bottom

 

We were caught by seal-coating near Barriere and that gave us the opportunity to see some of the fire damage that happened in 2003. 

 

Vacation 2006

Here we are on our way to Kitimat. We caught the ferry from Nakusp to Revelstoke, had a lovely crossing 

Another lovely garden shot. 

Then we went out to Kammerzells but they weren't home. We were not shy and stood in their beautiful garden and took a few more photos 

Lorraine and Amelia and Mom and I went to JB's for lunch on a very nice Sunday. The BEST halibut and chips! 

Baking Powder Biscuits - for Diarmid

2 cups flour
5 tsp baking powder
1 Tbsp susgar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c margarine
1/2 c cold water, beaten together with
1 egg

Mix together dry ingredients, then cut the margarine into the dry ingredients, either with a pastry blender or two forks until the lumps of margarine are pea-sized.
Add the water and egg mixture, stirring with a fork until just moistened, don't mix too long.
Roll or pat out on a floured board, cut with a sharp cookie cutter or knife. Place biscuits very close together in a pan with sides. Bake about 20 minutes at 400 F.

Here's Mom on one of the beds in our room. 

And here's the only shot with Sandy in it. He just couldn't understand why we weren't making him the centre of attention, the way his life usually goes. 

We visited with Popes after they took us for dinner. Played cards and had a great visit. 

the Manteo resort in Kelowna

Here's the view from our room. We sure would have loved some more time there.
