It was a long weekend ... not affectionally known for the past 17 years for us, as the "May Long Work Weekend" ..... typically known for starting many many projects and leaving the majority of the cleanup and finishing, to my sweet husband. However, this year went quite well, and Chris was happy about all the new people and the projects that did get completed! So, after a good nap after lunch, he took the rest of Sunday off and we took the Rentons for a boat ride!!
First stop was Pineapple Beach .... some explored, some sat on the beach, some built a fire ....
Some took pictures .....
And then others took pictures from different angles ....
And then from another angle ....
Nothing makes kids flock like a fire ....
Then it was time to head towards Jakes for dinner and we had to go through the locks that joins the river to Cowichan Lake ....
This picture was actually from the ride home, where we picked up Daniel and brought him back after dinner ... the first trip through the locks had the majority of the adults soothing Bennett who was really upset over this new experience ... it was pretty scary for him...
Heading up the dock to the restaurant ....
The restaurant had a long wait, so some went to Subway and some went to A&W .... way better eating in the sunshine with eachother ... Daniel, Marika and Natasha met us for dinner ....
Had the nicest time with this gal ... it's been a lot of years since she was up as our videographer, but she has become such a world travel ... so she's a wonderful one to dream about travel with ....
These clowns on the way home ....
