Camping......

again tonight... i can hear squeals of 'delight', who knows... since Levi is home and the girls are spending another night in the tent... the adventures have been quite fun to watch... i 'wasn't allowed to show their faces... no makeup ya know!! but nobody said anything about legs, backs etc., :D

camping without some sort of padding.. isn't quite what they had in mind.... so an air mattress from auntie...
sian, erika and crystal ... and of course the foremen (dora and sampson)...

i got some of my raised bed organized today... still too cold to plant yet... but i dug up my parsnips from last year... and made a stew for dinner.. yum yum.... yesterday my friend dug up her carrots from last year... and we had fresh brussel sprouts and carrots...

Flickr....

is a great site... for those who are honest... not so great if your one of the photographers who's works are being stolen and used for someone else's profits.... here's a link to a forum in Flickr... if you know someone who posts their pics on Flickr you might want to pass this on to them....

Pics i've promised.....

are here... its the remainder of my trip north.... just a few pics of the ferry trip over to the island....

the ferry terminal... to nanaimo

the ice cream stand... wierd lids i think!!

it takes awhile to upload the pics.... so i'll add some more later... today is a decent day, gotta go prepare the pea, spinach and swiss chard beds.... they are a disaster.... the snow played havoc with them....

Sunday morning.......

i made an omelet for the girls.... erika and her friend crystal slept overnight... in a tent... BRRRRR!!!! better them than me!!



it probably wasjust above freezing last night.... should have sent a dog or two in with them....
mmm i was nice and toasty warm in the house :D
