Weekend Que Pasa

We both spent time catching up on our emails.  Colin did some work in the RV while I did some here in the house.  In his spare time, Colin keeps editing our award winning entries for the Tommie Awards.  The builder of this house plus ourselves are the main people behind the entries but we are in the process of getting a third associate participant in each of the four categories we are entering to help defray the costs.  We are only short in two categories and hope to hear during the business week about the other two.

We enjoyed a spring salmon BBQ Friday evening, which Colin cooked to perfection.  By waiting a bit later into the evening, we were finally able to sit outside and dine al fresco sans wasp.

Last summer we were able to eat out most evenings but not this year. It was great being able to watch the wildlife on the lake. we only saw the one wasp. Maybe we are winning the battle.

I ordered a fancy address sign for our new home from the USA.  It took forever to get here as it was custom made. Then I was away in Edmonton and then it rained and then it seemed that this weekend was the perfect time to put it up.

Colin worked very very hard in the 32C ( 90F ) temps to get it right before putting in the final screws.

We both think it looks fabulous and classy.

Still hot and humid but a change is in the air.

With this forecast I think we shall BBQ some salmon tonight, sockeye this time. We do have a freezer full to eat.

Last night we had a fabulous sunset .

This is making me think Mexico and all the great Isla sunsets.

So glad that we took a moment to enjoy nature.

 

Bonus 😆

    Wonderful photos – best wishes in the contest! Your temps are better than ours here – we started our outside woodburner today to take the chill off.
