Good morning Campers! And remember that today is THC Tuesday! So, let's have a little fun out there shall we?
That's right folks start your day with some CBD for the aches and pains. Have a little Sativa to get the house work done and finish off with some relaxing Indica in the late afternoon. Life is so much easier when all the niggling things don't bother you.
We still have our latest Rental. Jack has been with us for about six weeks. He's about six or seven months old and now that he has overcome his fear of people he's roaming the Wayward Inn at will. Of course this has pissed of Miss Maggy Baggybits to no end. We're kinda hoping that he will be adopted soon.
Speaking of the Wayward Inn, the blossoms on the Saskatoon berry bushes are extremely plentiful this year. Maybe there will be enough for a pie this season. The other thing to note is that the leaves on the trees between us and the Redneck will pretty much obscure his place. Nice.
The Oma-nator keeps right on trucking. Kidney function is up. Meds are down. And still playing Trouble. She has her routines and wants to help so we let her. I like to make her laugh because without laughter you might as well have your soul sucked out of you and then move to the Golden Horseshoe. And who the hell would want to live there? Especially on purpose.
I've added a new flag to list of what's flown at the Wayward Inn. It's the Tibetan flag for the month of May. Let's back up Dear Readers. There are several different flags that are flown and for good reason. Our Nation's flag, the RCAF ensign, the Pride flag is flown in June, a Christmas flag for December and a Bavarian flag for February - the Oma-nator and my Better Half's birth month. So why the Tibetan flag in May. Well, it's to draw attention to the Chinese the annexation of Tibet in May of 1951.

I saw today that the Mariupol steel plant, that was being shelled by the Rotten Ruskies on a daily basis, has been evacuated. The You-Alls have donated ninety M-777 155mm artillery pieces. In the right hands these long guns can accurately land shells within just several metres from thirty miles away. The Great White North sent four of these units.
There is plenty of snow on tbe Beauforts and this last weekend saw the post Beer Flu return of the Snow to Surf race, www.snowtosurf.com The race includes two kinds of skiing, two kinds of cycling, there is running, kayaking, canoeing and maybe some snowshoeing too. The route starts at our ski resort then transits the Valley to the Big Lake the transits the Valley again to the estuary and ends up on the far shore where after ringing the bell to stop the clock someone will hand you a beer. Congrats!

One more sleep. One more sleep and I am on the road to the Sage's place. I haven't been there since the Senior Sage's service last August. I'll be grabbing the BC Navy boat out of Hub City direct to the Western Pearl and then on to Fish Elbow. The question will be - do I go right or left at the junction? Both are under reconstruction due to the winter storms last year. One adds two hours to the trip while the other is a boring drive. I just saw what the expected fuel prices could be and it is really going through the roof. I don't know why it is getting so expensive, especially since we don't get our oil from The Mean Olde Ruskies. I guess since their oil is not obtainable on the world market the demand for what is left has drive the price through the roof.

Yes, I know that I am late. I have gone to the Sage's and back AND, I wrote nothing. I apologize. So, sorry.
To recap...
The trip out was not bad. Spent my time discovering where the highway construction was taking place. Several bridges had been washed out and many more were comprised in last November's storms. There is evidence of some of last year's forest fires and in some places landslides had taken place because there were no trees to retain the forests thin topsoil. While Fish Elbow I helped out the Sage as much as I could. She seems to be ready for the big yard sale on the May Two-four weekend. L'il Sis is coming in from Cowtown.

I'm back at work again. The weather is about three weeks late. We are still experiencing temps much less than normal and we are receiving more rain than normal. I had spread fertilizer on the back lawn and now everyone is afraid to venture into the back yard for fear of being jumped by some WWII Japanese soldier who is still dug in. I am really hoping the weather clears so I can go fishing with my Friend from Over the Hump. I'll have to finish getting the boat ready today of we're going to have a shot at it.
My Better Half has decided that we are adopting the Rental. They have really taken to each other. On the other hand, Miss Maggy Baggybits has not. She is still Queen of the Castle and does not cotton too much to this young upstart.
The Sensei and his Lobster were over for a night of cards, snacks and adult beverages. Our youngest Loin Fruit joined in as well which added an extra dynamic.
I can just see the Beauforts from my position. There is still plenty of snow up there. As much as would like the temps to rise the snow pack will keep the forest fires at bay. Last year's fires on the mainland were devastating for many communities with one town in the Fraser Canyon being reduced to ashes in just hours. That being said, there is a woman who the Queens's Cowboys are looking for as there is evidence that she started some fires - nee committed arson - in the Interior.
Well Kidlettes, I'm going to close this off. Sorry it took so long. If you have any questions drop me a line.
