Penticton Trip March 11



We made our third trip of 2011 to Penticton to take my dad to get hearing aids and to do some of his business now that his house has been sold.



We drove home through Keremeos and Princeton. There was still a lot of snow on the hills and Princeton had about 4 inchs of snow on the ground.  We saw some mountain goats just outside Princeton and lots of deer in the fields.

This is the time of year to see lots of eagles in the fields and on the frozen lakes

Works in Progress and Some Finished Objects

I finished the quilting on a landscape I started last year. This is the view of McGillivary hills from the Pritchard area.
