Since then

Since we camped at Golden Ears the first time. Cass' sister has visited and left us. It was great having her visit. We ended up going down to Bellingham in the states to shop at Target and see the pier. She brought a GPS car navigator with her. This was awesome, it made finding things really easy besides the couple wrong turns I would make. I also  ended up buying a game called Settlers of Catan. Which is a very well made board game that only takes about an hour to play, is quick to learn and is different every time you play it.
Today Cass and I got back from camping at Golden Ears again. During the heat wave BC is having now it was great. We spent a lot of our time swimming and in the park it is cooler than in Abby plus it gets cooler at night so It was easy to fall asleep. Right now it's 35 degrees in our apartment, I wish we didn't have to leave.
I need to finish writing up an Abstract for a poster I am making for work to be sent to CAMRT the annual conference for my profession. Cass is reading a fair bit and trying to stick to her running schedule for a 10k after she gets home.

Windshield Wipers

I was driving home from white water rafting on a dark and rainy night. Turn on the wipers and I see nothing but streaks. So yesterday finaly i went to buy some. Walmart had a good selection and I found some good ones. I was playing with turning them on and squirting the washer fluid all day. They worked so well. It's raining today and I want to drive around the block just to test them. I'll hold off, i know they work.

Beautiful Cultus Lake Cottages

Cass and I went down to a gated community on Cultus lake where her aunt has a cottage. It is a very beautiful place. Everything has been very well built and the landscaping looks great. They're right beside a glacier stream that is freezing but very refreshing to walk in on a Hot day like yesterday and it feeds into Cultus lake which is busy but fun to be at. They also have a community building with two pools one for kids the other adults and two hot tubs, an exercise room, ping pong, foosball, pool, poker tables, and shuffle board as well as a media room that is full of recliners and a big TV. The views are great because it is really close to the mountains, I didn't feel claustrophobic but I'm sure some prairie folk would. 
Here is the website: http://www.cultuslakecottages.com/

It was also the first time I saw a pink sky out here in the evening, guess it will be a good day today.
