A beautiful sunny Week-end!

Lynn came over for a little getaway this week-end.. and what lovely weather we had, day and night!
Saturday night we had a long soak in the hot-tub and watched the stars and jets going over head.
(Oh yes, on Saturday morning around 5:25 am, I jumped out of bed and threw a jacket and pants on and ran out to the front yard in time to catch an awesome view of the Spaceshuttle Endeavor and the International Space Station flying in tandom right above the mountains south of us .The shuttle had undocked from the space station and was on its final trips around the world before landing at 10:30 pm.As I have mentioned before, join up to Spaceweather.com to get these announcements .)
However , when we were in the hot-tub, I did see a major ball of meteorite fall down between the Kokanee mountains.. I didn't see the trajectory... so maybe it came from behind the mountains...it was bright and looked like it just fell straight out of the sky. I hope it wasn't flare from a lost skier.....


Although it was sunny out, we still needed a toque...in case you are wondering why Lynn's hair turned purple.

We took our chances and crossed the property owned by a large barky black lab named Rex!
We ended up doing a long long walk and I was wishing I had brought some water with me...
I have to say we worked up a little sweat!

Now here is your laugh for the weekend... This pic below is of Silky and myself with Ranjit! Isn't he a site?
Yes, it is Randy all dressed for the big Indian dinner that his wife Frangit cooked for Deb and I on Friday night...

Chef Frangit in the middle, Deb on the left and moi on the right.

Frances cooked up a storm for us... yummy samosas baked in phyllo dough, Curried shrimp, Butter chicken, and fresh home made Roti that she cooked up right before dinner. Thank-you for the nice treat Frances, and Randy!
