Steveston








A couple of weeks ago Holly and I went to the coast and stayed in Steveston for a few days. We were fortunate that, at the last minute, our regular B&B had a vacancy. No breakfast this time - we had the suite so were on our own, but we still ate well. For example:
From the fish & chip place at Garry Point...


While I window-shopped Holly sat at the beach and read.



We got together for dinners and breakfasts with friends a few times. James and Richard came out for a visit too. It was a very relaxing time!

Good thing it's a long weekend!

I worked for most of yesterday. One of our librarians who's been off in hospital for a couple of months came back in the afternoon but there was nobody else to do the morning. And then I couldn't just walk off and leave him without a little catch-up!

After that I went to Sears and ordered a new dishwasher to replace our broken 15+year old one and picked up Breaking Dawn for Holly. Did nothing but half-heartedly watch TV last night.

Unfortunately I woke up at 6 this morning with a terrible stomach-ache, tossed & turned & felt sorry for myself for a couple of hours then moved to the couch. Where I went back to sleep till 11:00!!! Tummy's somewhat better but I have a headache. I think I'll be staying on the couch today. Too bad, I had given some thought to cleaning up my scraproom...
