Rainy BC

We returned to Vancouver March 28 and it has been cold and wet almost every day.  The garden is a month behind but doing well otherwise.  But I much prefer to be here at home working on my projects than doing nothing in Yelapa.

In the photo above you can see the garage doors installed and the fences ending with gates at the front and back corners.  This section of the deer defence system is now complete but I have plenty of projects left to keep me busy until we return to Mexico in September via Ontario to visit family.

New Car

I am the proud owner of a new 2016 Jeep Patriot which I picked up yesterday in Langley.  The 1996 Subaru had me worried about expensive repairs and the end of year savings offered by Jeep convinced me to buy now.  It is the basic model plus the larger engine and a trailer hitch.  My vehicle decision was based on price and the ability to tow so I don’t mind that the car is quite “retro”.
