| the falls are roaring as you can see |
We had lotsa rain and wind overnight until about 6 am today. But not so bad by 7 am a comfortable 48F (8C) headed out for my first walkabout around the park and across the road to Rock Glen Falls. We could hear the roaring of the roaring water right here and even inside our coach.
 |
| the mist in the air was like wow |
 |
| just before the falls the river was raging |
 |
the road into the park flooded
not passable |
 |
| you can see our coach from the falls |
 |
| oh we did get to see a sunrise as well |
A bit later took a drive to Forest for a few groceries and stopped at the reservation to gas up the car. A good price there $1.20 a litre ($4.53 a US Gallon) compared to $1.31 ($4.95 a US gallon) elsewhere.
Before I left I took some twigs off our engine battery the robins are still making a nest, less the 2 hours latter lots more twigs, these guys just won't give up. Guess they are bird brains?
 |
less than 2 hours they had this done
we don't want a nest here when we leave on Friday |
After lunch a got a few more walkabouts done 3 miles so far today and found it quite warm. Got my chair out and enjoyed some wonderful reading outside. Look at the temperature below. And does feel like 75F (23C) gotta love it .
Enjoyed this wonderful weather until 2:30 then time for Happy Hour at Ron and Loree's. Thats just fine inside their place and started to rain anyway. We were greeted by Freddie all excited as usual then he soon settles down once he has said Hello to everyone.
 |
Freddie greeted us as always
so excited |
 |
he gets a few treats from Suzie and does as he was told such a
wonderful dog, and Suzie got her doggie fix too. |
3 more people joined us as well first was Dave we met before a couple of times, He has an amazing collection of kites, flies them and even goes to competitions.
 |
| Dave the kite guy |
 |
| these are pictures of some of his awesome kites |
Also met another couple as well new to this park Eddie and Annette another supper friendly couple. I met Eddie the day we checked in while I was filling our coach with water.

| Eddie and Annette |
And as usual the conversation just flowed. Got to know each other better. and before we knew it was 4:30. Time for us to head home and whip up supper. Amazing how the time flies when we are having fun.
 |
| Ron and Loree |
 |
| happy hour snacks were too tasty |
 |
| Freddie loves to have company and relaxes right in the middle |
Back home for Supper I whipped up a salad and heated up some of our left over Lasagna and froze that much again. 2 days in a row was enough for us. With the tortillas instead of noodles was not quite as filling but all the cheese I put in was like wow!
 |
| another very tasty supper |
After supper still a wonderful day so got our chairs out again. works on this posting and we read for a while. Just after 7 pm still 67 F out here and I am going to post this so I can get back into my page turner. Sunset not for over an hour yet and if we get one I will post it tomorrow.

ReplyDeleteYes Nancy it sure is a right across the road from us as well.
DeleteI very much enjoy reading about your days. Thank you. I have a habit of looking at photoblogs last thing at night before I go to bed, and always breathe a sigh of relief when I've read yours. Interesting and calm and reliable. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind words Judith. I am glad you enjoy our blog and wandering around with us in this wonderful lifestyle.
DeleteThat is a lot of water! Hopefully it quits raining for a while so things get back to normal
ReplyDeleteThat is a lot of water moving along the small river and over the falls. should stop raining soon.
DeleteYour little waterfall is a heck of a cascade this year, WOW! Another nice Happy Hour catching up with fellow travelers.
ReplyDeleteYes Jeff it sure is amazing after all this rain. Happy hour was fun and always nice to meet new people and make new friends.
DeleteThe water is so powerful coming off the falls. Hope it stops raining so it can recede a bit.
ReplyDeleteOh the power from those falls is amazing can almost feel the ground move when close to it. Should stop raining soon , and some bright sunny days would be wonderful.
DeleteWow those falls look wicked. So strong. Glad you are far enough away.
ReplyDeleteThey sure are wicked and so much power, we are hugh enough but can still here the falls inside at night.
DeleteThose falls are really rushing and dirty! They are so pretty regardless and soothing for sleeping! :)
ReplyDeleteWe were in London and yes it was a warm dry day until 3:30 when the rain hit the city.
Warmer days to come to our area soon.
They were really rushing the runoff from the fields makes it dirty. They are very soothing.
DeleteIt was a wonderful day here no complaints at all. Soon warmer yes !
Wow that river, and the falls, are really flowing! Our creek is starting to move faster and we can hear it when we are outside but the falls are up in the hills so it is a hike to see them.
ReplyDeleteThey sure are with all this rain. Mice to se the falls across the street for us.
DeleteWow! The falls are amazing! Wha ta little rain will do for sure! Great Happy Hour with friends and yes the spread does look awesome! So does that glass of wine hahah. Freddie is too cute! Dinner looks yummy and after 2 days I like to freeze leftovers too, then it's like a new meal when you defrost it!
ReplyDeleteWe really do love the falls here and enjoy all the changes. Happy Hour was fun chatting with these guys and the snack , yum... Freddie is such a pet and easily excited but them settles down.
DeleteNice to freeze the rest and will enjoy another time.
I remember the first pictures you posted of the falls and the bridge...what a comparison to the way they look now...but beautiful by any account.
ReplyDeleteI do not know what Suzie has that dogs gravitate to her but it is a gift. That happy hour spread looks good. You have a lot of friends and make more daily. Glad warm temperatures are slowly but surely headed your way.
We really enjoy this area and the falls. She does have a gift with dogs they just love her. Happy Hour was fun , snacks and making new friends a bonus as well. It is slowly warming here and we are enjoying it.
