Fishing














We and our friends E & V, had planned a fishing trip at our favourite lake near Cache Creek for the June 3rd weekend. Now we took my Dad with us. It was a great weekend - the beauty of the area, the peace and quiet and being with friends was just what we needed after laying Mom to rest . Yes, there were times of tears but also time to remember and be grateful for all Mom was to us.


Dad loves fishing and hadn't been for a long time so it was wonderful to see his pleasure in trolling on the lake and bringing in those Kokanee and Trout.


Harv also took Dad for an ATV ride up to Deadman Falls - always spectaular but especially so with the extra volume of water from the spring runoff. The Falls, the lush green meadows and white Aspen trees are just so gorgeous at this time of year.















We are so grateful for the beauty of God's creation which provides balm after an overwhelming and emotionally exhausting week.
