June 11

The road to Radium was awesome as we towed the bikes to Radium Valley Vacation Resort with a stop in Fernie and spent a week riding, golfing and soaking in hot springs. The stay in the 3 bedroom house was a surprise and the riding in the mountains for the first time was scarey. I had to remember to breath when we went around corners on our way up to Panorama but after 5 days of experience up and down the road from Radium to Invermere to explore (and sing at open stages and karaoke bars) I finally felt comfortable and look forward to riding all the way to Penticton rather than towing next trip.

The trip home was though Golden where we stopped at the Glacier Raft Company to do a double run of the Kicking Horse River and what a rush that was! Next time we hope to do the lower half that is supposed to be even more challenging!


Mid month was another milestone celebration when Ray's parent's celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary. With 4 generations in attendance, it was a good time had by all! End June was the 5th Annual Dead Hog Boogie. This year was once again at the Manyberries Rodeo grounds. Did not successfully defend my rodeo game title but Ray won the slow race so still came home with prizes and met a new friend, pictured below.. HARLEY!
