Hello Everyone!
Peter and I would like to say that we enjoyed every minute last Sunday with all you SSR Fanatics. Always great to get together with the ones we already know and a pleasure to meet the new Fanatics. Big thank you to everyone for all your help throughout the day! Look forward to crossing paths with everyone done the road once again.

Beautiful property and great hosts. The spread was delicious and I would especially like to thank those who left early and made the humongous sized strawberry shortcake helpings possible! I guess I should thank Sue (Tickldpink) for hulling the strawberries.
It took a lot of effort (and food) to host a group our size. Thanks again Peter and Cindy. It was wonderful.

Peter and Cindy thank you for allowing all of us to invade your home. You two are the best hosts ever. Carol and I had a great time and look forward to seeing you soon.
Glenn and Carol (Redracr)

PS - A big thank you to Sue for keeping this herd together and pointed in the right direction.

Thank you Peter & Cindy for your incredible Hospitality & Generosity ! Judging by the smiles and conversations, all SSR FANTASTICS were enjoying every moment of the wonderful afternoon in the sunshine at your beautiful cabin at Merritt !

Some photos to share:

from the tour of the beautiful home, an early ride on the boat to see Nicola Lake, to the anticipation of a FANTABULOUS BBQ'd Steak Dinner with all the trimmings - and, the friendships of new and old Northwest SSR Families.......

Well Done, Peter and Cindy !!!!

Peter and Cindy,

What great hosts you were and thanks for having us. Your cansion is amazing. What a lot of thought and personal touches you put into the design. The food was awesome which is no surprise given the last event you hosted.

Til our

and

cross paths again..........

PS: Cash, I told our gracious hosts to make sure you ate our share of the strawberry shortcake.

Photos of the work crew and the clean-up committee having fun because everyone cleaned things up so nicely before they left !!!! All we had to do was have MORE FUN !!!!

tickledpink · 06-28-2011, 06:01 PM

the scenery was incredible - the River VERY high and VERY FAST !!!!

We made a stop at Hell's Gate to take the tram to the river and learn about the history of the area.

tickledpink · 06-28-2011, 06:19 PM

last, but never least - a final few photos of the sort of great visual images of the week I spent as a guest of Peter and Cindy !

Once I mastered the steep climb to the ceiling to get into my bed at night and overcame the dread of having to get up in the night and do it in the DARK; I settled in to help get things ready: Day one - broke a shelf in their NEW refrigerator and burned the handle of their NEW BBQ tongs. Finally I was given a simple task to keep me from doing any more damage - hulling twenty pounds of Strawberries !!!!!

What a grand event, yummy BBQ steak dinner, and incredible group of SSR Fantastics !!! Thank you to all who made it so special, and a BIG HUG to our Darling HOSTS - Peter & Cindy !!!

Love to all,

Sue

PS: A visit to the gift shop as Glenn tried on several new bonnets which I thought you would like to see....

When my kids were little, and I was into body building they used to call me Big Guy, so the name just kinda stuck around.

Hi Sandy,
Take the second exit off of Hwy 5 as if you were going to our place but turn left instead of right. Go by the hotel chain (Ramada, etc) on Voght Street, continue down about one km and you will see it on the right hand side. Close to the Police Station. Hope to see you there!
