We made the best of
a grey and chilly morning...
we're having our nap!

My brother and I emptied the coffee pot before my daughter appeared at 9. Then I took us out for breakfast before photos. 

My daughter left for the office while my brother and I left for Tranquille. We drove up to the landing above Kamloops Lake for my panoramic shot of the valley. We were both surprised at how much sandbar has been exposed along the river. It seems that there are places where one could walk right across the river. 

I stopped at Tranquille River for a look on the way back. A city of Kamloops grader scooted past us as we were parked by the river. We caught a long freight train heading south through the cut. 

A stop by the wetlands pond found two pelicans feeding. I caught one stretching its wings showing the contrasting black feathers on the edge of its wings. 

It's been a chilly, blustery morning and we're glad to be back home for lunch. A nap is in order with some vague notions about dinner.
