Hi All, This month's report is about Buying a Home.

Finding the right home may be a process of elimination, but nothing beats the feeling you get when you know you've found
the one. However, before you get caught up in the excitement of it all, here are five things I'd like to go over with you, if you're interested, before you put in an offer. Feel free to forward this on to family and friends who are inthe market for a new home—remember, it would be my honour to help them through the process.

I know I'm supposed to be blogging about Real Estate but cars are more fun. After arriving home from the auto supply with bags of filler, paint, sandpaper ect. I got to work rebuilding the rear fenders on Tara's car. Luckly I'd made a template of the shape out of a convenient house for sale sign. I filled in the missing fender sections with a self adhesive expanded metal. Then the fun stuff. I mixed up some long thread bondo and worked it into stips of fiberglass cloth then applied the whole mess to the fender and expanded metal. Using wax paper on top, the concoction could be moulded into shape just before it set up. Now for some grinding and more filler. thumbthumb  thumb thumb thumb thumb

Last winter I cleaned out the garage and brought Tara's little CRX in to clean up a couple of rust spots on the rear fenders. Anyone who's worked on older cars knows where this is going. After blocking the car up and removing the mouldings I got to work with the grinder. OMG this little weekend project took on a whole new dimension. (see pics). So armed with a shopping list it was off to the auto supply store for me. (to be continued)

Interesting couple of 'showers' we had the other day! Time to get out the jackets. :( We got away for the long weekend (along with everyone else) and went up to Salmon Arm for a few days of birding. We saw over 100 species for the trip but the highlight had to be the Great Gray Owl at daybreak on a misty morning. It stands more than 7in taller than our local Barred Owl. We meandered home via Nicola Valley and saw a great selection of birds at Beaver Ranch Flats.Great Grey Owl
