August 2

When we woke up this morning we couldn't see the park at the end of Rob's street for smoke from the B.C. fires which have drifted south and into Washington State.  We are now officially in a heat wave for the next few days so the combination of smoke, heat and humidity made for an uncomfortable day.

We went to our friends Jeff and Rose's place in View Royal.  They divide their time between Victoria, Santa Barbara and the Turks.  They took us to Juan De Fuca Lawn Bowling Club where they are enjoying lawn bowling and the socialization that goes with it.  They demonstrated the ins and outs of the game and then Norm played with them for a bit while I hid in the shade.


Then we went to the Six Mile Pub & Eatery for a lunch again (we stopped there yesterday for lunch).  Too funny when we discovered that their place is just up the road and within walking distance.

We then came home to hide from the sun.  At 6 pm we thought we'd go for a walk and got about 3 blocks away before deciding it was just too hot.

The cats seem to be handling the heat okay, better than we are!

While I dish out their food for dinner, they rub their cheeks together
