This morning we went into town to see Kars Under The "K", the annual classic and antique car show in Memorial Park in Keremeos. "Under The K" refers to "K" Mountain, behind the town, and overlooking Memorial Park. The photo below is of a 1926 Ford Model T fruit truck. Very appropriate for Keremeos, "The Fruit Stand Capital Of Canada".
After lunch we mounted a large concrete bird bath on the stump of the dead Douglas Fir tree we had removed last week. It's okay ... but small consolation for losing the tree. Using a pick axe we dug two holes in our lot where we want to plant another tree and a Saskatoon bush. Digging holes in our lot is almost impossible since it's scree / talus / rock slide shale that's been compacted by a huge compactor piece of equipment.
Monday ; Hot today ! Went into the nearby Crown Land forest and dug out two small Douglas Fir seedlings, then dug out another small Saskatoon bush from the forest around our RV park's "burn pile" area. Transplanted the two small Douglas Fir seedlings and the Saskatoon bush onto our lot. Let's hope for the best ! Late this afternoon we washed the truck. WHEW !
Thursday ; Today marks two years since Teddy's death.
Saturday ; A hot, long, hard, lucrative day of delivering trailers. One in Penticton, three in Osoyoos, and one in Summerland.
