A Day of Fun Out and About - Feb 5th

After getting some things accomplished at home we set out for Silver Star Ski Resort. It has been a little while since we have been there. Long ago we liked to take our young family there to ski. In the last few years we have liked to go to see the beautiful scenery.

On Sunday there was a snow carving competition with judging at 11 a.m. as part of Vernon's Winter Carnival. It was so foggy in Kelowna and all along the way. We stopped to take pictures as Kalamalka's emerald waters looked so pretty against the white of the hoar frost on the trees and bushes.

Some of the day in photos. (Please do not take photos with out asking first. Thank you.)

Such beauty right close to where we live!

Tree and lake
I love the colour mix
Once in a blue moon!

The first snow sculpture we came to
I like all the snowflakes on this one
The back side of this one. I will have to put the front side on, too.

Wonderful snowflake
I really like this bear. It reminds me of the eagles all around Vancouver for the Olympics. And then the moon is just an added bonus!
We got to see the most beautiful sight when we drove down the mountain. The colourful sunset over a lake of fog clouds on top of the city.
