Provinicial AA BaseBall in Surrey

Image
Bought  a new baseball hat and got ready to travel to Surrey on the weekend to watch our grandson Jacob from Powell play in the provincial AA Provincial Baseball tourney.  Never made as I was in and out of emergency wed and not feeling well at all.  Apparently I have some viral thing which they have to locate and identify.  Just got back from the doctor today and more blood work but still nothing definite. Claes is being agreat nurse and taking over all of my Kye Bay duties.  Our guests of course are incredible and so co operative.  THANK YOU TO YOU ALL!   ................talk to you soon.  Lue

KYE BAY UPDATE

The weeks are filled with friends, fun and lots of sunshine and are passing by so quickly!  The wind has subsided and the tide continues to bring in a different configuration of sand and pools for the little as well as big kids to play.  (Great place for skim boarding!!!)  As we look out we see driftwood structures and sand castles....................summer time fun!  Our time is begining to become more relaxed as most of our chores are  done and our guests continue to be so  Kye Bay friendly.  Thank You to you all for making our job such a delight!   It is amazing how much the children have grown and a joy to watch them as they arrive to greet their buddies from the beach.  Some of them see each once a year--here at the Bay.  It is a great little community!  The pictures will  tell the story better than I can relay. During the past week we celebrated Tanyas' birthday with a day at the beach and Pot Luck Supper.  ...

Sounds like we are planning to return to the WHITESHELL II in the beginning of November.  Will fine tune that as I check to see what flights are available.  It has been rather exciting to meet with our Sailing buddies and realize that it was not a dream.............the eight months were real!!!!!  We are hoping that more of you can join us in a Sailors Reunion here at Kye Bay the week of September 8th??????  Let us know...............until later we will get back t...

This picture is taken from above our spot...............pretty cool hey?  We have had an incredible week two  and now into week three.  Such fun!  Roz was here for a few days.  That is a treat as she seldom has the opportunity to enjoy the resort.  Her grandchildren were super and her friend Dave a delight.  He played the guitar and sang for us so I was in my element! .
