A Visit to Kamloops!

Decided to fly to Kamloops to visit Grams, Eileen and Daddio!  Found this heart stuck under the airplane window next to my seat.  Took it as a good sign!
Four hour layover in the Vancouver airport!  Ate dinner at the Monk's Grill. Delicious!
A couple hours went by before they posted the departure gate: C32!
This is the tile in one of the washrooms. I hand some extra time on my hands, but I truly enjoyed myself! Then it was time to board the plane and the flight was a blink!
Dad, Eileen and Grams greeted me at the airport with shamrock garlands and shades: Happy St. Patty's Day!!!
Green Tea instead of Green Beer this year!
The well-known Harley ridin', controversial country rock artisit, Kamloops Gord, stopped by the house, and we invited him to dinner.  He accepted!
Eileen's homemade Greek salad, Grams scalloped potatoes and Dad's roast chicken = YUM!

Dad and Eileen's living room is so welcoming.  Warm and cozy...
My favourite window in the house
We convinced Kamloops Gord to stay for a game of Scrabble!
Grams in her element
By the end of this game, Eileen made the rest of us look "inept." In our defense, she is a professor.
Big brains and a little luck of the Irish!
Robbed or robbing?

Grams is "green" even though "they didn't have the green thing back in her day."
Cuddled up watching The Big Lebowski

This is how Dad cools off spaghetti noodles before testing them.
Organic, veggie pasta sauce with whole wheat noodles and bakery bread
Another epic Scrabble game
