I think we were in Whistler in February or maybe March 2002 at the latest. Here Reg is sunbathing on a bench in the village. We were invited to Whistler on a business trip with Reg's company and were so excited to really get to spend the weekend there as well as see old friends again.
It is absolutely stunning in Whistler, as the world found out at the last Olympics. You are surrounded by snow but at this time of year it was quite warm. There were women skiing in bikinis, believe it or not, working on their tans.
There happened to be a dog show going on when we were there. I was in heaven! I love dogs.
This is the first Newfie dog I saw in real life and I fell in love. One of my favourite dogs ever.
Reg and his boss who really took care of us and helped us out so much by letting Reg telecommute. She knew how hard Ottawa was on my health and went the extra mile to help improve our situation.
We went out to the most luxurious three-fondue meal, wish I had photos of that! First, cheese. Then, meat. Last, chocolate! I was a vegetarian at this point so I only got to indulge in two course but they were divine. Here Reg and I were hanging out in the lobby of our hotel and we felt so at home there. In fact our dining room table we bought two years ago reminds us of this hotel. All wood and stone.
We drove home past The Chief on our way back to Vancouver very happy.
We took our friend Cathy to visit Belcarra Park after we got home from Whistler, wanting to share its beauty with her.
This is me in my element. By the water, hanging out with the mountains, letting the sunset beam across my face. I was happy. So very happy.
