Autumn also brings...


Memories.... Autumn always brings memories of going back to school, high school and college mostly. It also brings memories of childhood fun in the leaves and cool crisp days. It also reminds me of getting together with my 5 sisters for a retreat for the first time ever with out kids. We are planning to get together next year as well. We wanted to get together every year but life gets in the way so it will have to be every three. We spent the last retreat in Victoria, B.C., Canada. We had such a great time that I wanted to share a few pics. Of course I'm the one with the dark hair.
"Sisters, sisters, there were never such devoted sisters"



We loved this roadside produce stand. I have never seen so many pumpkins in the same place.














We waited a long time for the fairy coming and going.






e searched for light houses and found a
few.













One of our favorite places was Butchart Gardens.
This is the sunken Chinese garden.

We must do this again, Sisters!

Hi Terry! Did you know that Ray's grandfather, who was Dominion Botanist for Canada, had a hand in planning Butchart Gardens? It truly is one of the most beautiful places on earth! Jan H.
