We drove up to the Willow Creek Reservoir to let Bear play in the water and also to take in the beautiful views. Bear loves the water: Nothing as pretty as seeing water and snow-capped mountains together! The flowers were in full bloom: I’m not sure what kind they were, Read more…
Our truck started having issues the last two times that we had driven over to Larry and Bouraine’s house in Fraser. When I shut it off the radiator “gurgles”. I checked the fluid level and it’s fine. I will have to wait until a weekday in order to take it Read more…
