June 23

We took Toad to the Honda dealer in Penticton for a brake check and then spent a delightful day with my cousin, Dick and wife, Darlene. They have a lovely home high in the hills with spectacular scenery. Naramata is big wine country, so there are vineyards all around and reminded us so much of Italy and their home/setting was so like the B & B, "Capovento" we stayed at in Tuscany!
Dick and Darlene Beautiful waterfalls in their backyard Sooo picturesque
Darlene overlooking Naramata Bountiful cherry tree. This is big fruit country, too, and many, many cherry, apple, peach, apricot and pear orchards.
Had a wonderful lunch/wine in the sunshine at Hillside Winery.
After a fun trip around the countryside and lunch, we picked up Daisy (brakes are good to go)and then later in the afternoon, back to Dick and Darlene's for delicious supper under the beautiful pergola! What fun to visit and see their "bit" of paradise!
