Started holidays in the Okanagan a few days ago …made a pit stop.

Eventually made it to this dump.

So I thought we should make the best of it.

Went for a few rides and came across this 3” PVC pipe farm. They’ll be around 10’ tall in September when they harvest.IMG_7976.jpeg

Got to see The Doors during the ride.

It's really annoying when the accomodation isn't as advertised ..I would ask the bastards for a full refund ..😉😂
 
Day(something?) of our vacation. 7 others are still sleeping but I still get the bikes ready. A few years ago I convinced our other friends to get ebikes so the garage is starting to get cluttered.

Wife and I are ready to go. Not a lot of trails around here but some interesting routes past, almost, every winery.

Stock is getting pretty low.

I won $28 in coin last night (money game for 8). We'll be able to stop for ice cream on the way home now.

I’m an early riser so I just sit by this large water container in the morning …until everyone wakes.

Oh yeah, I had some time in the morning to replace all the receptacles, light switches, fan timers and install several USB and USB-C receptacles throughout the house. I’m a fake electrician btw.

That you are not a professional electrican is obvious. Look at the anxious looking faces of your power outlets! 😉
 
Apart from sandals with socks, Germans are also famous for this behavior on vacation. Often while wearing sandals and socks. :LOL:
Didn’t know that „we“ are famous for that as well. 🤔 Having checked to be prepared for my next vacation I found that he must be from Berlin (BBC news)! 😂
 
After my pootle on the Lakeside Way midweek ..back up to Kielder again on the rougher stuff for a few hours this afternoon after finishing the domestic duties my good lady had set out ( err a bit of housework & gardening ..nowt spicy 😉) .
An absolutely glorious afternoon with the trails dry & ( dare I say it ..dusty ) ..a complete opposite to the last time I visited Deadwater earlier in the month when I could hardly see two yards / metres in front of me ..
Full Deadwater / part Osprey Inc Osprey Chick & Skydive on The Lonesome Pine Trail..

Next up a bit of an adventure this coming Wednesday with @The EMF over in The Western Lakes on a route in and around Loweswater roughly described to me by my Doctor ( pretty cool that he patches me up then sends me out to potentially hurt myself again 😀) ..and which myself and Wayne have managed to scrabble together ..
Not sure what to expect other than I'm told the scenery is fantastic ..fingers crossed .. 1000007644.jpg 1000007645.jpg
