On to Salmon Arm

Started the day again picking raspberries. 

I could have picked another bowl full! So many and so delicious. Just ask Leah.

Just before we headed to the market I realized I didn’t really have a picture of Jordie. So now we do

And maybe a bit clearer. 

Saturday market in Kaslo had a garage sale, 

musicians, 

fruits, vegetables, crafts and the famous croissants! 


The vendor said she can sell 1,000 this weekend! 
So goodbye to Kaslo and off to find more Gidneys.

A stop in New Denver, a sweet Kootenay village where you can always find something interesting to buy.

Driving the highways we see so many motorcycles, often from Alberta. Norm checked these ones out. 

I checked Slocan Lake. But not enough time to swim since we had to catch a ferry at Galena Bay. 

Making sure we know where we are going....

We arrived at “The Gidney Ranch” just about dinner time.  Brothers Cody and Jesse and their families live here on 80 acres. 

Cody and Jenna’s log cabin that was on the property for them to move into. Jessie and Marissa have built their own place near by. In total 8 Gidney's today!

A perfect dinner of sirloin tip the boys cooked with all the vegetables from the garden. Yummy. 
One last Gidney arrived to make it now 9! Joanne Gidney (JoJo grandma) arrived after a 12-hour drive from Grande Prairie, after visiting her mom and sisters for a week Wow! Quick photo with little Gidneys before all heading to bed.
