Wednesday, we were invited to lunch with Steve and Dianne to meet some people who follow our blog from Northern Alberta. Leslie and Dave Roche. They managed to snag a campsite next to Steve and Dianne at Peace Arch RV Park for a couple of days before heading back to Alberta. The choice was made to go back to Big Ridge Brewing where we all enjoyed an Asian Dish of some sort as that was the special of the day. A great visit and even though Dave and Leslie invited us for dinner with Steve and Dianne, we had to decline as Ray had already sat too long as was not feeling very well with his cold. Thanks for the invite though and we hope to catch up with you again next year in Arizona.
Thursday it was off for pedicures for Dianne and I. We always have a blast when we get together. We are expecting a furniture delivery today of some antique pieces we purchased for the new house so Ray will stay home and wait, not that he wanted a pedicure, lol. Another sunny day ... yeah!
After our toes were done and I did a little grocery shopping we decided to pick up the lads and head to White Rock for Moby Dick's famous fish and chips. It was too nice a day not to go out somewhere! At least that was the excuse I used. :) lol but did not receive any objections. Our furniture already arrived and my new waffle iron from Amazon so Ray was good to go. I managed to find a parking spot right out front of the restaurant which is usually unheard of and a bunch of people just left as we walked in so we got a table for 4 without the usual wait. Bonus. The food was fabulous.
With full bellies we took a short ten minute stroll down the promenade, watched a train go by and then took our guests back to Peace Arch RV Park. Not a long interlude but Ray was feeling pretty tough still with his cold so to bed he goes.
Here comes da train!
We got home to a message from our realtor that we have 2 more showings scheduled, one on Saturday morning at 10:15 am and one probably on Sunday. Fingers crossed. Tomorrow it is off to get my hair done and then I have an appointment with the accountant to sign off on Dad's 2017 income tax. After that I need to pay mega $$$ at the bank for said income tax. The tax department sure gets a lot of your hard earned investments when you die. Once less thing on my list as executor though.
Two visits this week...bonus! We must get in as much visiting as possible before we go our separate ways!
ReplyDeleteYou bet! :) I see a meetup in our future this week. :)
DeleteReally good to meet you both, so good meeting the people writing the blogs. The executor gig is tough sometimes as we found out when my mom passed, sounds like you're close to complete. Good luck on the showings, another check mark maybe.
ReplyDeleteIt was great meeting you guys as well. Well I paid the humongous income tax bill on Friday so now most of my "exectutor" duties are on hold until the house sells. Once that is done it will just be a waing game as it will take another year to finalize the estate with the government. :)
