Whew !

Now thats what we call a summer day ! It was 32 downtown today and almost as hot at home. No complaints here ! Since we live on the side of a mountain (we think of it as a mountain), we have the cooler mountain breezes in the evening and it isn't quite as uncomfortable as in the valley.
Its incredible how tasty the fresh fruit is here! After living on the prairies for 57 years and getting fruit that has been stored and transported east, we never get tired of the abundance that we have here in the Okanagan. We truely feel blessed.
Tomorrow we're getting some fresh (frozen) sockeye that was just caught by a local person who has a commercial license. That should be a treat this weekend.
Here is a picture of one of the flowers we have growing out front.

Its called a dinner-plate hybiscus.

 Good night !
