June 21st to 24th back home











Roger and Susie's Travels Well Peggy and Robin Joined us for few days on the way home we stopped at the famous goat on the roof in Cooms and shopped around. the next day (June 22nd)Robin an I went to golf range and hit a basket of ball (I am still in training) after that the four of us went on the boat and did some fishing. the deep sounder was not working so we didn't have much luck with the fish so we just cruised around. (June 23rd) I went to Campbellriver and dropped off the depth sounder to get fixed got back home Robin and I went and did a round golf (9 holes) at our local course. The girls went to town shopping and Robin and I met them for lunch. From there we picked up the now fixed sounder Susie carried on shopping and Robin andI and peggy went fishing. Robin caught 2 small salmon which we sent back to the ocean for future concideration Peggy caught 1 salmon which was big enough to keep but it jumped off the hook right at the boat so we had a pretty good time back home for a barbacue and fire pit we were all pretty tired (big day) (June 24th we went down to the beach at low tide and collected sand dollars Then Robin and Peggy had to leave for home they caught 12:45 from Duke point the rest of the I worked on the boat.

More of the same old balony

Roger and Susie's Travels Well besides trying to get ready for the fathers day weekend (on June 16Th)My Buddy Hal decided I should have some more golfing lessons so we went out and did 18 holes as expected I didn't do much better (but except for the extra pressure I did enjoy) By the way out of 18 holes Hal I think parred at least 4 to 5 holes. (June 17Th) My Cousin Dan La Rose called and invited me to come for a ride with him in his self loading logging truck for a round trip from Cumberland logging site in the mountains to the log sorting area on the north side of Campbell River (round trip approx 2.5 to 3 hrs) The bad part was I forgot to bring my camera you would find it interesting to see him loading logs on to the truck. Then to see them unload the truck at the other end. Maybe I will get another time and I will make sure to bring the camera. no pic,s today And I should mention that Susie has been very busy doing wonderful things with the food that we all like for the fathers day weekend.
