August Long Weekend










I headed up north to visit Auntie Vi and Leo. Todd stayed home with the girls and took them to the beach and the local country fair. The girls went to beach on Saturday and it was very busy with some kind of festival going on. The girls just wanted to collect shells and make sand castles. At the fair, the girls got to see the RCMP Musical ride and collected all of their bio cards on the horses and their riders. They saw the animals, practiced milking and of course went on the rides.
On my way home from Vi and Leo's, there was a forest fire that had just started on left side mountain of the highway. It has now grown to over 2000 hectares and is completely out of control at this point in time. It looked like a volcano erupting the way the smoke and ash were billowing so quicky into the sky.
