#150 Jun 2017 Home for the Summer!

If things happen in threes we were ready to say enough. In September I broke my ankle, in February we had major repairs to the main slide in the RV and in May we had a third of the RV roof replaced. After several months of unexpected challenges we were ready to set up the motorhome and regroup.

Summer is usually a great time to be in the Lower Mainland. Ralph was able to pick up summer relief work at VCC (Vancouver Community College) and BCIT. I was able to pick up a few days at Sovereign Leasing again. We enjoy the opportunity to be out with people and the paycheques are a nice bonus.

Each time we return to Peace Arch RV Park it is always fun to catch up with other couples who have been traveling near and far. There are many full time RVers who spend several months in this park. We all have a love of travel in common and share our experiences.

Happy Hour is a popular, often spontaneous event. Everyone brings a chair and their choice of beverage then we share stories and laughter.

Sometimes we leave the park and enjoy local events. Eight of us went to the White Rock Legion for a great dinner and sang along to Jason Scott’s “Diamond Forever…A Celebration of Neil Diamond”. Jason aka Neil started his show shaking hands with everyone in the audience and getting us revved up for the familiar tunes.

Father’s Day Ralph and three other men from the park celebrated a Guys Day at nearby Mission Raceway.

The ladies went shopping/browsing at Guildford Mall. The men didn’t believe no one bought anything.

Another evening a few of us went Cruisin’ the Dub at AandW.

This sign in one of the vehicles says it for all the owners.

This 1991 Rolls Royce Silver Spur set an elegant scene.

This Dodge Charger looks much better than the Dukes of Hazard version.

My dream car has always been a 65 Mustang!

There was a constant turnover of vehicles during the evening. Lots of memories and dreams.
