TIME TO GO HOME

 We've had a great time on Vancouver Island, seen some beautiful sights and visited some family and friends but it's time to get home and put the motorhome to bed before the weather deteriorates.  We moved up to Neil and Carol's Sunday.  We drove up to Qualicum Beach in the car yesterday and visited my sisters Susan and Janet and their husbands.

John and Sue mentioned the Stone property to us yesterday so when I got home last night I went to ask Carol if she knew anything about it and she was in the process of filing her photos of the property!  She and Neil gave us a guided tour this morning which you will see in today's photos.

We hope to catch the 10:15 ferry tomorrow from Nanaimo back to mainland BC and then make our way homeward.

  1. I should just ask by email, but what's the Stone property? But also, it was great to have you here, and I'm glad you enjoyed your last days of visiting up-island!
