We had a great summer with lots of visitors. First up were Nicole's parents for an extended stay at the lodge. We are pretty sure, Adrian brought home some unforgettable memories of Nickel Plate lake and the mosquito attacks. My cousin Kevin was here for a wedding in Vancouver and came up for dinner one night. Thank's again for the booze! Of course we overbooked, like professional hoteliers and convinced Daniela and Paul to stay an additional day in Penticton. However, their visit was still toooo brief, but Daniela was soooo eager to get back to work... we just had to let them go. For the last 10 days I shared accomodation with TWO Nicole's. We took her to Vancouver for an extended weekend and did lots of shopping, as we always do. She helped us process all the fruits we got from Ruth & Walter. Now we stocked up on jam and compote for the colder months.
Nicole made sure, she gets up to the house the coming winter and bought a 2006 IMPREZA with a hatchback. In the meantime we are still trying to sell her Äntli for a better price then the trade-in would have been. No pressure....
