As the weather starts to warm up, the hibernating or warm
weather critters are appearing. Now if
we could just keep the wind at bay, the temperatures would be quite pleasant. The darn wind keeps sweeping down off the
snowy ridges. We seem to be getting a
lot more wind than we’ve experienced in previous visits to Penticton.
Other than some necessary grocery shopping, I haven’t been
in any stores. We continue to walk but
more and more people are getting out making it more difficult to keep the
distance. The other night after supper
we went walking along the KVR railroad trail and saw one other person who went
by us on his bike.
One day we went for a drive west of Penticton up into the hills. We found a quiet place to have our lunch sitting beside the car and only two vehicles went by, it was very peaceful. The bluebirds were serenading us for most of our stop. We've managed to find a few more geocaches as well.
