Love is so hard to define......
I could say it it's the softly spoken phrase, "hey, should we go for a ride today?"
Or ......the words, "let's ride Highway 33 to Rock Creek".......even though there was obviously a storm brewing on the horizon.
But love, true love,.......is a look of grim determination and the words , hell no, let's continue on.....even though the temperature dropped to less than 10 degrees at the summit and the cold pouring rain was more reminiscent of November than late August. So, after changing from mesh gear to rainproof over pants, and zipping shut any open vents, we completed a 250 klm/five-hour ride from Summerland, through to Beaverdell and Rock Creek, and back to Summerland.
Or.......... I could say true love, real lasting love, is that most magical of phrases....those quiet words spoken only in the darkest hour - never at five in the afternoon in stark daylight (but hey, we were freezing!) - with a twinkle in the eye and a glass of red wine in hand......"hey, want to join me in the hot tub?"......
Hmmmmmm.....maybe love isn't so hard to define afterall.

About Me
- Dale and Rosi Boisclair
- Fifty something and ready for the next adventure! Dale & Rosi have been happily married for > 30 years and along the way have made great friends and enjoyed the support of a wonderful family. Dale’s now self-employed after a 28 year career in banking and, even though it was a little scary at first, it’s now giving them the freedom to refocus on all the fun things that life has to offer. Rosi would say this includes lazy days by the beach or pool at a Mexican hotel but Dale would say it’s definitely time spent riding his motorcycle - but life is full of compromises isn’t it? Cheers!
