Perfect summer day, and family fun on Friday.

Where are we today ?

            Just a beautiful peaceful friday morning here. Walkabout down  by the water can hear the bullfrogs  out there somewhere but can't find then.
this guy keeps following me around
Love the peaceful early morning walks.
           Then into Buckhorn pick up a few groceries, gonna have company today. Daughter number 1 and 3 grands.
love view from the grocery store parking lot
good fishing in these waters
       The down the street to see if any boats  at the lift lock number 31.
this be the Buckhorn Buck 
        Yep a few nice houseboats here with the residents enjoying life on the water while having their breakfast.
         Back home we relaxing waiting for the crew to arrive, and the Shaw Satellite people to show up with the new L and B for our satellite dish.
         Well the family arrived and perfect weather right along with them too. Sunshine and temps in the mid 70's (24c).
Did not take them long to get changed into their swimsuits
Grandad lets go swimming
      Just a short 2 minute walk and we are at the pool. Not too busy and the water temp was 82f very nice and refreshing.
that's me and grandson number 3
managed to get us together while Suzie snapped a pic
Grandad this is so nice and warm
      Now back home dry off while we put together supper.
Showing Grandson # 2 how to split wood
he did a good job, a nice campfire for making spider dogs
Hot dogs, spider dogs, crackers, cheese, chips and dip
for a  quick easy tasty supper
        And while having supper the satellite guy arrived with the new L and B, a 2 minute install and now works perfect again.
still have more energy to burn
     Then play and chat a bit more as the fire burned down,  and the grands began to yawn. Gonna be dark soon. Time for Mom to pack them in the car for the 2 hour drive back home, Daddy should be home from work by then.
So nice to see them with this wonderful weather
        That was our fun filled day, the young un's sure keep ya going.
        Thanks for stopping by again and enjoying our fun day with us.

    1. A long time favorite especially with children around a campfire.
      1 long fork (if making over fire or bbq).
      slit ends of hot dog with an"X" then place on fork and cook over fire or bbq until ends curl like a spider.
