This is our last day in Canada, unless you count the bleary traveling hours between five and whenever we cross the border in the morning. We've had a really amazing trip, and it'll be very sad to leave. This is a picture I took this morning in downtown Castlegar. Look how green it is! It's like living in a campground (only more showers and fewer people yelling at their kids about hot dogs).

This is Max and his beautiful great grandma. Look at how they have the same facial expression!

This is Max with his . . . Second cousin? First cousin once removed? How does it work, again? . . . anyway, she is my cousin Haley, so whatever relation that makes her to Max.

Max and his mama with Auntie Lynne, chillin' on the lawn.

Unfortunately, Max's grandpa has become extremely aggressive and violent now that Max's departure is imminent. He began threatening us with a garden hose merely for mentioning the trip back home. He is now tied up in the basement, for his protection as much as ours.

what a nice vacation :)
at first I thought downtown looked a lot like your yard, then I saw the train tracks
Sadly, downtown is much, much better maintained than our yard:( Even the vacant lots had nicer lawns.
No shouting about hotdogs!? What a shame ... kids need to know that they have to have mustard on their hotdogs, in mean, angry tones.
Chelsa, Canada has nothing on your backyard. I have scrutinized each of the photos, and not one had a foxtail in it.
they don't grow here.
