Things that have happened recently include:
Thanksgiving - that was fun, but I didn't take any photos, so in internet terms it didn't happen. Things I didn't do included riding bikes, eating food, and playing with The Tav. One of those things didn't used to happen at Thanksgiving, can you guess which?
Painted some things in the kitchen - but I didn't take any pictures of that either, and I expect the world is beyond weary of pictures of our kitchen by now.
We (all three of us) went on a bike ride - oh yes we did. We explored Vernon's hottest new public amenity, the
Okanagan Rail Trail. In my past life, I would have been sub-lukewarm about the prospect of riding my bike on an old railway line, but now I'm all over it. Family fun times abound:
 |
| Although my nonchalant leaning looks staged, I was legitimately nonchalant at that moment. So there. |
 |
| Two of three family members being propelled by a bike. |
 |
One family member wasn't really engaging in the natural wonders of the Okanagan,
but did seem to be enjoying it in his own way. |
Then we went to a pumpkin patch. The family fun times really did kick up a notch this weekend. I was unfamiliar with pumpkin patches, but quickly learned that it's a large area of mud with pumpkins in it. Amazing. You do at least get pulled there by a vintage tractor, so that was fun.

| By next year, Tav might be worth five bucks. |
