A Week With the Duecks

After much anticipation and counting the days to their arrival, my dear brother Fred, his wife Angela and their kids Stefan and Sabrina finally arrived for a visit. We had a great time and a fun-filled week. It was hard to drop them off at the airport, we will miss them! Here is a little sample of some of our shared moments. LOGS, ROCKS AND TIDE POOLS One of the things in Stefans's list was to return to the "Log Beach" and build a fort.

And a fort they built . . .

. . . complete with kitchen and all

Collecting rocks . . .

. . . and throwing them was also a favorite past time. And of course, we could not leave without exploring the tide pools

WHISTLER

We also spent a few days in Whistler. We did not have the blue skies we hoped for in order to enjoy the beautiful views; however, that did not deter us from having a good time. The Duecks had a great Pacific Northwest experience when we went out mountain biking. Besides getting a little turned around and ending up in some rougher terrain then expected, we also got drenched. All the kids were asking for biking the next day!!

Nothing like soaking in a nice hot tub after hard core biking!!

Shawn and I went on a Ziptrek Adventure! It was a lot of fun!!
