The Kangaroo Farm

We were able to take a quick trip to Kelowna in September while our barns were empty. This was our first chance to use our new fifth wheel trailer. We were very happy with it! 
Stacy and Braedan suggested we go visit the Kangaroo Farm. What an amazing place! The animals roam freely around the visitors and are completely comfortable with that. We could pet capybaras, maras, goats, rabbits, wallabies, kangaroos, a peacock, a porcupine, tortoises, and more. Parrots sat on our heads, lizards and rodents climbed on us- incredible!
Elise got stung by a black wasp and was wanting to leave. Thankfully staff brought her an ice pack and a strip bandage to wrap it on with. And thankfully we had Stacy, who can always fix Elise’s woes. 
An albino joey, and a mama kangaroo with joey legs sticking out of her pouch also helped exchange tears for smiles.

National Day of Truth and Reconciliation

Deciding that Truth and Reconciliation were really not our issue, we went to PG to enjoy a long weekend with Jared’s family. Even Caleb came along! The men went to work tackling the winter wood supple while we ladies ran the home front. I did get to try the log splitter, but Luke, with his broken arm, was very busy with that job when he wasn’t driving the tractor. By the end of the day, the logs were beautifully stacked. Caleb had this responsibility and did a great job.

Campground map- very helpful  Dad and I snuck off for one walk together in the week. It was fun! And beautiful.  Family photo❤️ The whole group! It was wonderful to camp together.  Val doing paddleboard headstands. Impressive! The kayaks were well used.  The Nature House always had interesting things for Elise, plus some neat programs. Most of us went to one on bears.  Joshua is so loved! Uncle Luke absolutely loves being an uncle.
