Vancouver vacation - Friday

Friday dawned rainy in Vancouver so Kelly and I stayed in for the morning before packing an overnight bag and headed across the Canada - U.S. border to the town of Port Roberts. This town was made famous recently because of a high-profile murderer who fled from California eventually taking his speedboat up the west coast to the marina at Port Roberts. From there he crossed into Canada by foot. Two days later he was found dead in a hotel room in Hope. B.C. This happens to be where Kelly's sister Lori and her family call home. I was intrigued to say the least!

Lori and her husband Brady have a HUGE house with the most amazing view across the water into downtown Vancouver. Brady is a pilot with Air Canada so his commute to work is reasonable. Lori stays home with their two daughters Ally and Brooke (so adorable).

Friday we just stayed in, drank some wine and painted our nails. It was a fun girlie's night (Brady took care of the kidlets so we could let our hair down a little). It was so neat to meet Kelly's sister and her family as I had been hearing about them for years when we were teaching. Many thanks to them for their hospitality during my visit!
