Working again....sigh!

So I have succombed to the lure of work in Victoria again.....but just for a week this time. This is where my office is, on the Gorge waterway. Not too shabby. Lots of great little bistros and restaurants to service mostly govt workers. Nice office, great people, so it will be fun for a week.








The best part is being able to walk to and from work - 20 minutes along the waterway. First over the Galloping Goose tressle bridge, along with lots of walkers and cyclists.


Then along a waterside pathway to within a block and a half of the house. Sweet!



Views of the water, boats moored and lots of waterfront residences added to the sunny walk home. We have a separate suite in which to stay, great space, and even cats to cuddle with....nice! Bridgett is holding the fort in Parksville with the Girls.

Cats and dogs

Chiik has gone to his soon to be new home for a week. Tippy (who hates cameras, as you can see) is a 17 year old rescue terrier who is mostly blind and somewhat deaf, so didn't necessarily see Chiik so close by when they both went for a walk around our yard last night.


Chiik did some hissing, but mostly was pretty cool, no doubt sensing that Tippy is not much of a threat. We dropped him off at Ingrid and Maggie's this morning with all his toys and goodies and will get him back in a week when we return to Parksville.



So here we are in Victoria, staying at Sheila and Anne's, who have 2 amazing cats they brought back from Thailand. They are very used to walking on their harnesses, as you can see - get this, Dax and Sitges!!!!!



We all walked a couple of blocks in total and then home again. These are big, soft, friendly cats, with personality plus!
