two days worth

1 It was good to spend time south island. We visit with Russ's old school friend and his parents. Everyone had a story to tell and some very sweet memories of Russ's parents. Lots of smiles and laughter.

2 Inge and Wolfgang are avid gardeners. They have pots full of fuchsias and heather. They live on the very top of Triangle Mountain in Victoria  with plenty of sunshine and an amazing view. Once they owned 40 acres, now it's 20. Imagine having 20 acres in the heart of a big city! 

3 Dinner and a visit with some favourite friends. 

4 Turkey, stuffing, carrots, brussel sprouts, yams, mashed potatoes with gravy and cranberry jelly followed by homemade pumpkin pie....Happy Thanksgiving!

5 We stayed up late the night before and so are sleepy most of the day. Adding turkey means we are 'this close' to comas! 

6 So nice to have a holiday together. We will have quite a few days of leftovers now. Turkey chow mein is my favourite. What's yours?
