Friendship Friday - Visiting guests from California

Last month we celebrated our complete one year residence in the City of Vernon.  This is not a requirement for anything, it's just we cannot believe the a year has gone by, even spending the winter months here.  This summer has been a very busy month with visitors both family and friends.  About a month ago, Jeff's friends from the bay are, called to check our schedule with regards to our availability and if there was room at our B&B.  We sort of had pre -booked them since they have indicated when we saw them in June that they were planning on visiting us at the end of August.  So it finally got all finalized and they arrived but with different schedules due to some requirement by the Canadian Immigration - ETA (Electronic Travel Authorization).  Even with some of this special document, they arrived safely and were able to see the Okanagan.  They were very impressed with the area where we lived as well as the beautiful drive from the airport to our home.  Although their stay was short, we manage to shared a lot of stories, enjoyed some great meals, drank a few more than we could handle (at home), and played hours and hours of billiards.  After they left, we had to get our home ready for the next group of guests (my relatives from BC and Washington).  It's truly like running a B&B, cleaning each room and preparing meals, etc.  Here's some of the meals we ate at the Alexander's Pub in Coldstream.
