August 31; Road trip

It's Monday now and Dave and I took off for the day in our rental car. This was Carmen's last day before heading back to work, the boys needed time to chill and as a family the five of them had not had a day to themselves since days before we arrived.

We headed to Kelowna to visit to of Dave's friends, Bob and Judy. We met Bob on his lunch break at Fatburgers. I have never heard of them but according to their placemats they started in California and are spreading. I had a veggie burger because I like them but no one else in my house does. I also ordered fries but the burger was too big and I didn't finish the fries. We had a nice visit with Bob and he and Dave were able to get caught up on eachother's news.

Next we went to visit Judy and her friend Dave in another part of town. Judy and Dave live in a gated community on the Okenaagan (sp?) River. A creek and waterfall make up their back yard. Again we had a nice visit and Dave (my Dave) and Judy got caught up on eachother's doings. Before we left Judy gave us a tour of their one floor home. If I ever win the lottery I will have my own home built and I will use the same floorplan. This house was awesome and my dream home.. I didn't even know I had a dream home until I saw this one. Of course there are so many things on my "If I win the lottery list" and I dont even play so I'll just have to keep dreaming I guess. LOL

Here is a picture of the garden they built in the front of their house. I am now inspired to take out the dying lilac tree in front of our house and plant a flower bed in its place. Of course it's doubtful I will grow anything this beautiful but it's worth a try.

Awww, I think you should've had to say, "Bob who is not married to Judy" ;)
