We were too tired and it was obviously pitch black when we got home last night, so at 5.35 AM, it was time to stroll and check out the gardens.
It was so refreshing to be there and see the fruits of our labour last fall in putting down all that mulch to prevent the weeds from getting a hold ahead of us planting. The birds were chirping and it looks like the robins have hatched their eggs and parents are out getting those early-bird worms.
After a check of the grounds it was down to mail, unpacking, getting the vehicles back on the road, a haircut for Doug and numerous other accomplishments. One of which was getting connected up to billion miles per hour internet connection. Such a change from the ship! This is the first time I have been able to do a blog in my preferred manor, this year.
Lora and Fellette spent a short time in the garden, Kelly and the girls were busy as only a young family can be. They are all dispersing to various spots in Canada and the US tomorrow. It was nice to have the home in use and everything in ship-shape order when we arrived home.
Jeanette was out bright and early this morning with our four months of mail, all opened and sorted into priorities to deal with as we felt like.Thanks, Jeanette. Later in the day, I went to CTI and Yann sorted out some issues on the computer and iPads. Thanks Yann.
Well folks, this is when I say goodbye & farewell until we hit the road again.
It was fun, thanks for coming.

By the Dawn's early light!
A Langley sunrise, too good not to take a photo. It had started to fade by now.
The leeks, ready for soup and the mulched beds, weed free!
Another bed.
Boysenberries, neatly trained, ready to sprint.
This is an experimental ground cover for us, seems to work and has yellow foliage all year long.

Welcome home, and thanks for the trip !
