Seems strange that we are here at this time of year again. Hard to believe that time just flies along like it does.
MAPLE BAY CAMPGROUND, CULTUS LAKE PROVINCIAL PARK
We have done Thanksgiving camping for eight years now. The first few years we were at another provincial park and there were a scattering of people camping. Then, it seemed to explode with people. We ended changing to Cultus Lake Prov Park because they have cabins available for some of our famiy members that don't have camping rigs. Works out really well.
Most of our years we have been really, really lucky with good weather. A few years we have definitely had our share of rain but looking back on the pictures Kathy and I realized how many times we have been in the sunshine.
First off though, August and Jasper in their
orange shirts for Truth and Reconcilliation Day, Sept 30th.
Truth & Rec Day.....
Off to Thanksgiving we go.....
Doug and Eurii ready for the troops...
This big field is right behind our campsite and is
so nice for just hanging out in the sun....
Once the turkey is safely in the oven we all head down to the beach for our "Stuffing Splash" into Cultus Lake. It's cold but a fun way to start the afternoon.
Swimmers ready....
We have the dinner pretty dialled in after this many years. Everyone has their "thing" that they prepare and it all works out amazing.Believe it or not, we have NEVER run out of food!
It was that kind of day!
Movie time after a long day
The pancake crew on Sunday morning.
August, Ivy and Grandpa Doug
Then it was a walk over to the Lindel Beach store for ice cream
Yes, after the HUGE pancake breakfast we still needed ice cream!
Our Rudy update. All ready for the fall season!
We love you Rudy!!
That has wrapped up our camping season. Since we bought Eurii last September we have slept in it for a total of 145 nights (including our Mexico time). That is pretty amazing. Some people don't use their RV that much in years.
I guess we don't do a lot of "fancy traveling". I consider this blog my own personal diary of what we do. I hope you enjoy it. Nothing huge to be gained from it. No earth-shattering information, just our family life as it goes. We are very lucky to be surrounded by so much love.
I'll see you all later....
Peace out friends.
Thought (laugh) for the Day: I prefer not to think before speaking. I like being just as surprised as everyone else by what comes out of my mouth.
