drive to harrison hot springs

I think I pretty much slept through most of the weekend as I was feeling icky. I managed to get myself together to go out and get my hair cut but other than that -- I didn't get a whole lot done. I guess that is not always a bad thing as sometimes it is important to just rest and relax -- now if one could only find the time to do just that.

I was feeling much better today so hubby and I decided to take a drive to harrison hot springs -- about an hour away from here. There was an article in the paper about the sandcastle competition coming up in May. They are amazing and we have gone the past couple of years. they have one competition in May and one I believe in September -- we have gone to both. It is hard to believe that some of these sculptures are actually made out of sand. I have a whole bunch of bookmarks in my Etsy store that I have made out of pictures that I have taken of sculptures. Anyways -- this past weekend they had a three citys competition -- Victoria, Vancouver and I cant recall the other one. I took a few pictures of them and then we went for a walk around the swimming lake.

It was a bit chilly but the walk was quite nice and when the sun shined it was nice. As soon as we were done with our walk and were headed to the car , it started raining --- yay us !!! We hardly got wet. lol --- here in BC that is a miracle at times.

I also took this beautiful picture of the mountains -- we were amazed at how much snow was still on it.

This week I am going to focus on getting our home clean --it never fails whenever I am sick I get better and realize my house is now sick. Reminds me of my card and what I sometimes think my husband thinks -- lol.

I also want to make a few mothers day cards as well as some matchbook note pads.

Time now to start dinner -- today menu - salad -- chicken burgers -- and perogies -- not sure about dessert yet -- maybe some chocolate later on.
