The Bartol's

We arrived in Golden a day after one of those '100 day' storms tore through the town. As we drove to Dan and Martina's we saw the roof of a car caved in and giant trees felled Helter skelter. Dan's place, the Long Way Home, was thankfully still intact. We were greeted by three easy going dogs; Misha, Podie and Mato. Banjo, a week old kitten was MIA. The kids were excited to learn of the four chickens in the coop out back. This morning Banjo turned up in the veranda. Dan and I took the boys on a walk through town. We crossed the Kicking Horse River which was a milky colour from glacial debris. The boys pretended to be conservation officers until Toby lost one of Dan's walkie talkies. We retraced our steps and found it by a water fountain.Läs mer
