Beautiful British Columbia - Holidays

June I don't remember much of like many of us with the ending of School

and oh so much more.But July I do as I am holidays.First to a family reunion

on the island celebrating my parents 50th Anniversary & another Reunion of friends in Osoyoos Now up in Kelowna,

where fires have been playing havoc.Smoke filled days have now been replaced

with cleaner air.It has been scorching with temperatures in Osoyoos at 42 one

day.Winds have been a blessing to cool us by but alternately fanned the flames.

So good to rejuvenate one's self and reconnect with all.
