Just a little update....because I found a little computer room here at the hotel.

I'm in Sidney, BC at a boooootiful hotel. We have an ocean view room and have to patio doors open to the sounds of the seagulls. It's dreamy.

Rick surprised us this morning with a LIMO to leave town in! It was so darned cool! We drove slightly down island and took a small ferry 25 minutes across a lovely strait. The most impressive part was Lucas heading to the Captain's deck where the BC Ferries captain let Lucas pilot the ship for 3/4 of the trip! Talk about a treat! He "swerved" to avoid a seal. If the other passengers only knew that the boat was manned by a 10 year old.

I'm having the best day buying lavender, bakery treats and collecting pounds of pretty beach glass. Dinner with old friends and perhaps drinks with a few others then my ass is on that plane in the morning!

I'm so excited, content, blissed out I just don't know what to do with myself!

I don't remember the last time I was this happy!
