As the sun went behind the mountain, the children filled their plates and dug right in... the rest of us lined up for turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, two veggies and gravy and buns... all the while keeping our eyes on the pies waiting to be cut... pumpkin, apple and mmmm
pecan pie (to die for, Sharon)
The weather was so fine on Sunday that we put the leftover food in the oven to warm up for our lunch and went for a long walk - ending up visiting Henry and his new cabin on the point...
and after another turkey dinner as good as the one the night before (no we didn't visit Alice's restaurant) - the children took off for the local waterfall/canyon/mud hole created by our faithful beer creek, right out there in the middle of our beach... you can't tell by looking at the kids that the creek is icy cold in October - but you also don't see any adults in there do you???
We took a Fish family photo before Shirley and Lorne left for home on Monday...
We hope they visit again soon...
Following our final lunch (turkey soup, what else) we spent an hour cleaning up and draining water pipes and adding antifreeze before locking up and driving out - saying goodbye and knowing that I won't return till the end of March 2007 is tough. Of course, we then spent two hours waiting for the ferry, the long weekend lineup is getting worse every year! however we were home safe by 8:30.
Coming to Beaton next year??? I know I will be, later man, jan
