    Travel: Plant Gather

    Plant Gather – this amazing plant store is in Kelowna, British Columbia. It’s one of a kind (we’ve been in so many plant stores!) and it’s run by some incredibly knowledgeable staff.

    Project: Plants 5.0

    Plants! Plants 5.0 – that’s right, I’ve shared a few plant updates over the years, yet not in the last 4 years or so. While we have a handful of new ones, some of our old-timey ones are doing great. We lost our original fire-stick during our second floor reno, yet got it replaced recent and that cacti is doing well in our home. All in all, plants are fantastic!

Okay, let’s check out some photos of day four, our last day on the trail. Laugavegur Trail Day Four For breakfast, we had oatmeal! After we hit the washroom…
