Touch the sky!

Our summer season is approaching quickly.  In a month we’ll be getting camps ready and flying out our first guests.  Before things get too hectic Karen and I are visiting our daughter, son-in-law and two grandsons near Vancouver BC.   With the 2010 winter Olympics being hosted in Vancouver next winter, Whistler ski hills will be a booming place.  As we are not crowd people (hence our Ignace lifestyle) we thought we’d see the Whistler area before the crowds. 

We spent a couple for days in Whistler and Zachary managed to “touch the sky”
