We happily left Vanouver behind and made our way back to Victoria. Interesting city, don't want to live there! Funny seeing everything being built up there and not out. This from me who is quite familiar with large cities too...
It has been nice to be people free and just sit down and catch up on some of my work. Received the end of year pay roll forms from Inland Revenue in the BVI from Lisa today, and I looked at them with dismay. To say that accounting is not my strong point would be an understatement, especially the tediousness of filling out the same information on forms for the government over and over again that they require as the only thing that computers know how to do in government offices is to print receipts....
My aperture program ate my pictures on my camera. I don't know why. It has done it a couple times. Seems to get a glitch, and then usually crashes my hard drive..... So, no pics. Had good ones too! We went out for dinner at Bacchus in Vancouver with my father. To say that my father is NOT VERY ambitious in the food department would be an understatement. He is even less so then me. I am busy in there giving him all kinds of suggestions for ordering boring food, and my mouth dropped to the floor when he ordered RABBIT! And my husband ordered LAMB (which he has been busy ordering everywhere he goes lately!) I felt very unworldly with my boring little steak!
Bazza is busy getting the car ready for towing behind the RV. I don't like a tow bar thingy on the front of the car. It gives me one more thing to misjudge the distance on and hit things with! Hoping to head down south in the next week sometime, supposed to go all the way to Mexico to meet my aunt for a couple weeks. We will see, we will see...
Yep Bazza, that is right. More family. Suck it up. Remember you love me. Give him another month or two of this and he will be begging me to go back to the islands!
I had new pictures of our granddaughter Ella with some new Xmas toys...
This is with our son Wade...
And the darling herself... Nicer pictures probably then dear old dad eating rabbit anyways!
For those who know my son Chad and the restaurant/nightclub/bar/lounge/clothing store they are remodeling in the old TD bank building in downtown Edmonton, as most things go, there are delays.
No, it did not open in 2009. They are "thinking" April, but since I received these two pictures yesterday of the construction, I think I should ask which year in April they are opening....
Enough of blogging, time to get back to answering emails and booking charters. Have about 8 on the go from different directions and on different boats. It is so enjoyable now that I don't have to cook, dive, and deal with government officials as well as book charters!
