Whistler Crankworx

What a great Thursday! We drove up to whistler to Mt. bike with dad and watch some crazy guys huck their bikes off jumps.

It was a bit rainy so the epic Lost Lake trail ride was shortened to about an hour but after a warmup hot chocolate and a Subway sub we were ready.

On the way to the hill we saw a bear. M and K attacked!











There was a 1.5 hour rain delay so the start was a bit slow and we had to eat all the pretzels and licorice to comfort ourselves. At least the sun was out!












Once the event started and the music blasted we realized they were not using the entire jump course but only one hill near the top. So, ten thousand of our closest friends ran the kilometer up the hill and watch these crazy guys go at it for an hour. Fun!























Pizza brought an awesome day to the end.

Here are a couple of videos: US THEM

Paddle Boating

One afternoon, we wanted to paddle around.


It was a sunny afternoon and we met Paul and Sue and Q. Paul and Sue rented a 2 seater and Jeff and the kids had the 4 seater limo. It turned out to be big and slow. Boohoo.


Next time, we want kayaks.

Penticton Triathlon

Go! Mommy go!


Above is Mike Adams. He was staying at Brian and Irma and M's with us. He is the Scotish champ and races on the world ITU circuit. We wanted him to win. He was first out of the water but finished 8th for the day.

One Chimney. Wrapped in plastic.




No chimney, big mess, empty space.

Hangin at the park.

It is supposed to rain tomorrow so we dashed out to the park to play soccer and monkey around. Tommorow we are taking down the chimney and adding a skylight. Of course, the skylight will only go to the attic until the rain stops.
