We are nearly ready and very anxious to be sure.  Our season here at the resort starts officially July 7th  check us out on FaceBook and like us so we can include you as a Friend.  www.kyebay.com You already are one but you know how it goes.  It is a technical world and though sometimes we think we should  back off but oh, dear we don't want to miss out on anything.  How about you?  Are you up to date?   Is your kindle part of your bedroom routine?  Are your photos all stored in your cell? Now how do I get these out of there? LOL    Your IPOD full of your favs... tunes that is?  Now those e-books are something though?  Not sure how I will transcend to them...........love my books.  Check the Flicks Page to see some new reviews just posted today.  Well I bought a new DVD today. It only cost me 19 bucks cause all I wanted was a simple plain machine.....something to watch a movie right. ...

FIRST SANDCASTLE CREATION OF 2012 SEASON

SAND, SUN AND SURF Grandpa was the Designer -  with Engineer Cole -  Site Supervisor/worker Annika and Quality Control/worker Grandma the site at Kye Bay Beach quickly transformed the abundance of warmish sand into a Castle to behold!   We had so much fun....................as the pictures show.  After a quick clean up we walked down to the park and laughed and enjoyed the beautiful afternoon.  Mom, Tanya joined us later for BBQ chicken and stories of our day.  WHAT A PLEASURE  and a treat.  The first of many this season..........come on down anytime for sand castle building and or walks in the park.  Claes and Lue and Joey at Kye Bay

SAILORS SPRING SKIIING

The Captain took his skiis out of storage and spent  the day up on our local hill: Mount Washington.  How great is that?  Slowly we are getting caught up on our jet lag and our land legs and even getting used to the temperature.  Does seem strange that it is still light out at 8 pm but hey just gives us more time to enjoy.   Check out the other pages for a few new pictures and items.   Lue and Claes back in Canada and lov'in it!!!!

A few of our friends report that darn white stuff in the Comox Valley.  Please Lord, have Your way it by the time we land on Thursday!!!!! Enjoyed a rather relaxing day today- Sunday are usual day of rest.   Yet we still managed to prepare the sails for storage- taking them out of their pretty blue bags and laid out in the sun to dry.   Dis assembled a few more electronic controllers to remove and relocate to a bodega safely tucked away from the dampness and expected rains of the summer.  We are sure please with our experience so far:  so quiet and peaceful here. No stress as the manager Carlito and his son are so organized.  Colette and Murray from ISLAND MARINE  offer 8 mooring balls for long or s...
