This has been an amazing summer with relatives coming together here in B.C. from China, Germany, Australia, the U.S. and, of course, Canada. The focus of this reunion that took place at the beginning of August was at the home of Dave and Marianne Cameron on the edge of Lake Kawkawa near the little town of Hope, 170 km east of Vancouver. Below are a couple of photos of this venue for our Family Reunion, plus the ones on the right which can be enlarged by clicking on each one.
John, Peter's brother, and Carly Foggin came from West Australia; Bernd and Jutta Schuppener and Christoph and Bergit Schmidt (cousins) came from Germany; Carol Tabor and Brian (also cousins) and (son) Caleb Dotson came from the States. Tim and Eva and Hannah and Rebecca Foggin and Marc and Marion and Alistair Foggin all came from China where they live and work (but on opposite sides of the country!). And all the others from Edmonton (the Mike Cameron family and Darryl Cameron) and the Toronto area (Bryan and Joy Karney; Adrienne and Tim Havercroft, Christina and Alex Karney) and from Burnaby (Judy Cameron) and White Rock (Beth and Peter). In the midst of various travel commitments and summer plans, they all managed to be together on the weekend of August 2nd at Dave and Marianne's home by the lake in Hope, B.C. See the photo of the 4 older generation siblings (Joy, Marianne, John and Peter) in Manning Park. There are two group photos of the three generations (see the first two on the right). It was truly a wonderful time of catching up with each other. We are all so grateful to Dave and Marianne for being such amazing hosts!
