At the end of June we departed on our annual trip to visit family in Prince George. Ordinarily we do the trip to Oliver for family on a different weekend but this year we had to go there first to help out at the Silver Sage Winery's 20th anniversary. This has always been one of Kerry's favourite wineries because of the people that serve you during the tasting. It's best when the owners family are the ones doing it because they have a one liner for every one of their wines that always makes you laugh. Over time Kerry's parents have developed a relationship with the owners and have volunteered to help out during big events.
The big event this time was their 20th anniversary. A free event for their best customers that included drinks and lot's of food. Reg was helping out serving wine while Kerry and Barb helped out in the kitchen and with setup. I came later with the kids but couldn't avoid helping out as well. Even the kids got involved with carrying food out to the tents. The weather looked like it wanted to rain but things stayed dry and it looked like everyone had a great time.
While we were there we walked across the street to visit some friends of Barb and Reg who own a kayak. In past years we've done it where Kerry and I each take a kid on our lap. Callie is getting too big for that so she got to go out on her own. I was a bit worried when she set off because she only seemed to be able to go straight away from shore but after a few minutes she got the hang of it and had a 45 minute tour of the lake. I think she really enjoyed it.
