Cortes Island in the winter

Since we are in the middle of getting our house ready to sell, we had to bring some stuff up to our place on Cortes Island. We drove up yesterday afternoon after Liz had her retirement party with her mentor group.

We arrived in Campbell River at 3:50pm in good time for the 4:30 ferry to Quadra Island and the 5:05 from Quadra to Cortes. Leaving on the Cortes ferry the moon was coming up and we took all kinds of pictures, this one is with my phone and not a very good quality. Once we are back home and have the usb cables for our cameras we'll post some of the good ones.

Today was a wonderful day up here with mostly sunny weather. We unloaded the van and empty out a bunch of boxes. Then went for a one hour walk on the beach.

Tomorrow we will leave for Victoria again....

Talk to you soon.

Cheers, Anders

Anders just told me we have to start a blog..... well guess what we now have a blog.

We are just in the process of reorganizing our lives. We have sold our business as of the 1st of January 2008. We are now looking forward of spending lots of time with friends and family.

We are currently doing some work on our house to get it ready to sell and at the same time renovating our new condo we bought. At the same time we are moving some of our stuff up to Cortes Island, to our beach house. What a challenge, and what an enormous amount of junk we have collected.

Yesterday was Linda's 21st birthday. Jenny was working late and Mark, Lisa, Sarah and Ryan are on a cruise in the Caribbean.

Jenny is off to Toronto on the 24th of January for a week and is staying with her cousin Natalie Krill that has one of the lead rolls in the musical Dirty Dancing now performing at the Royal Alexandra Theater in Toronto. Natalie is also starring in the new CBC sitcom MVP that airs on Friday nights.

We are booked for a week on Mt. Washington at the end of February and it sounds like the whole family will be there for at least part of the time.

Got to run for now, we'll keep you posted.
