| We had been getting a lot of flack since we retired, both from my sister June and from Ron's sister Heather,that, with all the trips we have taken, we had not been back to British Columbia since our visit the year we met in 1980. Meanwhile they had both been down visiting Ontario several times. Obviously, we were in the doghouse, so we decided to fly out for a week in Victoria with June, and a week in Gabrioala Island (off the coast of Nanaimo) with Heather. We had to leave our baby, Holly, in a doggy B & B. (She had a ball and came back spoiled rotten.) However, it was a good time for us to have gone, because June had just found out she had colon cancer, and really needed the support. |
