About our Family.........
Our family of four lives in Port Alberni. A small mill town on Vancouver island. British Columbia, Canada.
I say family of four, but those are just the humans. We also have a Rhodesian Ridgeback named Bandit. A long hair Chihuahua named Chiquita and an old grey tabby cat named Max. Recently a small ginger tabby kitten fell out of our grape vines. No one claimed him so we named him Henry and he's here to stay
