After our hike, we returned to our Home Away from Home, Patricia Lake Resort. Honestly, we have stayed here so often, it does not take long for it to feel like home.

Don’t judge me!Beautiful Maple leaves at the corner of our patio.Our private dining patio.The view from indoors.Mountain view as we walk the loop (a circuit around the resort).Patricia Lake Bungalows.Patricia Lake Bungalows.Resort sign.The Grove is the part of the resort we stayed in.
After working for 43+ years (38 years 7 months with my last company), I finally got that promotion I waited my entire career for……retirement.
I have been exploring this new career for the past 3+ years and while it is not always exciting, the chance to do what I want for myself and my family instead of what my company wanted me to do has been rewarding.
While I still miss the social aspect of working with a team of great people, I have managed to keep in touch with many from my former team and I have many friends and family members who now fulfill this part of my life. Now that my Patty has retired, we are able to spend more time in pursuits and with people who are near and dear to us.
I enjoy photography, gardening, working with my hands, walking, cycling, skiing, travelling, reading and creating special photo and video productions obtained in my first pastime. I may not become wealthy in any of these pursuits, but I already feel I am rich in life experiences far beyond any expectation.

Looks so great. We hope to get there someday! As for the Potato Chips………😁
I wouldn’t mind staying here for a few weeks, but it would be hard to pick a season. I would most likely choose an autumn time. Thanks for sharing. I am glad you had a great time. Aiva
Autumn is the best time, as most people have gone back to work or school and the days can be sunny and warm. I recommend it and we will be back there next fall. Hope you get to visit Aiva. Allan
