Time with hubby

Today is the last of Mike's four days off, and fittingly, it is rainy and Novemberish. Actually, it's more septemberish for up here, but November-like in say Victoria. Here's what we did on our four days together.


On tuesday we had a relaxing day and Mike cooked me this lovely meal before settling down to watch a couple of movies.

On wednesday, Mike invited A watch and C watch over for a bbq. (It's not that we don't like B and D watch, but they were the ones working). Plus, we wanted to have a small gathering of our closer friends from the detachment, which ended up being 12 of us in the end, but it was the perfect amount of wives and husbands so that I got to sit at my patio set outside and chat with the ladies while we ate yummy food. Afterwards, we played pictionary in our living room, and the boys unfortunately won, although only because they couldn't hear me shout out the answer :)

Then, yesterday we decided to enjoy the last forecasted day of sunshine for the week and headed to Tumbler Ridge. It was the first time I'd driven all the way there, (it's about 115km away) so I was excited to see the town, as I'd heard it looked more like what I was used to. And, it was true. Full of mountains and hills and trees, it was very small but beautiful, and felt more like home. While there, we went on a short hike to Quality Falls, took lots of pictures and ate lunch at the base of the waterfall. I was a little worried about Grizzly bears, but thankfully we didn't surprise any!







Now, it's his last day off and we are just puttering around the house while it drizzles rain outside. And, tomorrow it's back to working for him and being bored for me!
