Girls weekend....

Friday morning and I head over to Kathy's in Deep Cove and from there we will go to Horseshoe Bay to catch the ferry to Nanaimo.  It's a nice day and we look forward to getting together with Marg who will come up island from Victoria and Jan, who's house we will be staying at in Qualicum Beach.  

The ferry takes just over 1.5 hours and then it's an hour's drive to Qualicum Beach.  We stop and pick up several bottles of wine and then arrive about 5 pm.  Such a nice piece of property.  So peaceful.

This is what's referred to as the "martini garden".  We're bending the rules however and indulging in vodka tonics!  Ahhhh....so refreshing.

The garden is doing so well.  Beautiful sweet peas and lots of vegetables.  The high fence is to keep the deer from helping themselves.

Me, Kathy, Jan and Marg.

Back in the house we get ready to go to a play in town.  What a wonderful, relaxing weekend with great friends!  We promise ourselves to do it more often.
