Weather:
Hot: 34C with some haze in the air
Wildlife:
* some small quail birds with their parents up the hill behind Ruth and John's home in East Kelowna BC.
* an osprey in it's nest
* Ruth saw a mouse in her compost
Activities:
After a breakfast of fresh bagels, we went out to a nearby winery "The View", where they also make apple cider. Then we visited the St. Hubertise Winery, which was just up the hill.
A swim in the Okenagen would have been nice, since it was really hot. We ate supper outside at the Blu Saffron bistro, overlooking the lake; John and Ruth both talked about forest fires in the past. They experienced a terrible fire in 2003, when they almost lost their home.
We came home and went for a walk in the cooler part of the day. Ruth says she often sees deer around the trails in their neighbourhood, and she has the eyes to see them. I didn't.
Thank goodness for air conditioning, since it was really hot.
