We finally left Celista and have started our way
back to The States, but not before saying goodbye to the
moose that adopted us earlier in the week. The young animal
stayed on the property constantly for the last three days,
and we've come to expect to see her anytime. In fact, we've
started calling her "Brisket," after a tasty piece of moose
meat we once consumed in the company of Dave and Leslie
Albrecht of Airdrie (neé Grande Cache) Alberta,
Canada.
On the way out, however, we stopped in Vernon,
BC to visit with Betsy's Aunt Betty, Uncle Bill, Cousin
Leslie (Albrecht) and her three lovely daughters. Shown here
are Leslie, Betsy and Ashley. We had a great visit, then
retired back into town for a night's rest.
And here's another for the rapidly growing
"Roadside Humor" page I'm putting together. Pictured here is
the outside of a large supermarket in Salmon Arm, BC. The
name of the food store is pronounced just as it appears:
"Over-weighty!"
More later.
