Changes in July

 While in Oregon, we got to follow our grandson Colby, at a golf tournament.

On the Fourth of July, we went to the St. Paul Rodeo with Marc & Maria.
It was great!  Loved it!

We were lucky enough to be able to go to Sunriver with Marc and Maria.
The weather was gorgeous!

Time with Brandon and Karen on the Columbia waterfront.

Next we headed to Victoria, British Columbia with Brandon, Karen, Ben and Anna

 
This is the gorgeous Craigdarroch Castle.
We took a tour – Really interesting.

The Butchart Gardens…. A must see when in Victoria.

 The flowers are beyond words.  Such a labor of love.

 Our little Anna…… on a carousel horse.  (getting ready for High School this fall)

Worn out…..  lots of walking  😊

Now the main reason we went to Victoria.  Ben was racing in a regatta.
Here he is #3 in a four man boat.

He is the #2 man in this double.

The famous Empress Hotel

 This is the provincial capital building.  Victoria is the Provincial capital of British Columbia.

After our return from Canada, we had to make a quick B-Line to Southern California.
Mike is having a Total Knee Replacement and has to be back for pre-surgery appointments.

Outdoor Resorts looks beautiful.  No flowers but the golf course is green and ready for players.
No players…… it’s hot.

This fella doesn’t let the heat bother him.

Yes – that is 120 degrees.  (That’s in the shade)
But it’s only 90 inside !!
YIKES!

Thank goodness, we have some friends that are letting us stay in their home while they are away for the summer.  (Only 3 miles from ORI)  
We will probably be here for a month or 6 weeks after Mike’s surgery.

 The day is finally here..  Tuesday July 30th.  Mike’s surgery day. 
He is so excited about getting this taken care of.
He is doing great!  Doing his exercises, icing, waking around.  The whole works.
He starts Physical Therapy on Friday.
