Turtle Valley Drive

turtle valley near Chase


On Saturday Rick and Katie and I set off on an all day geocaching trip through Turtle Valley, Skimikin Valley, Sunnybrae on the Shuswap and Sorrento. We ended up doing 38 caches for the day and had lots of fun. The weather was damp and foggy, but not raining. Some of the caches ended up involving a walk up through the forest on the Fly hills near Skimikin lake. We also hit Herald Provincial Park near Sunnybrae and even did a few caches by flashlight in Sorrento. One especially was memorable because it ended up being up a tree and in the dark I thought something was going to fall on my head!  It was a great day to spend as a mini-vacation and a stress relief.

Great Shuswap Pottery Sale (with guests )

Here are a few pictures from the sale at the Shuswap this past weekend. It's always a great sale for me and this year was no different . I was so busy that I didn't have a chance to take pictures of the crowds.  I sold one of my new bigger landscapes, as well as lots of weaving and smaller landscapes.
