Gulf Islands Secondary hosted this year’s Vancouver Island, ‘North Islands’. The local team qualified for the upcoming ‘Islands’, and have the ‘Provincials’ in their sights.
It’s tough for a small school to compete in several sports at the same time. For example, the Senior Boys also qualified for the Soccer Provincials on the weekend. And the Swimming Provincials are next weekend…

The most photographed boat in Ganges Harbour. Partly because it is so visually west coast and interesting. And partly because it’s tied up in a position that makes it part of everyone’s photos ;-)
It’s become an icon in the Harbour. It looks particularly good in the rain, in fog, and during a winter sunrise.
(searching below for seahorse or tug will find more images of this icon)

Some of the SaltSpring Air crew ham it up during a sunny break at the dock Thursday. Despite the apparent shenanigans, wind gusts actually reached a serious 70 kilometers per hour on the dock. Only one umbrella was harmed (but was later revived).
The mascots were comfortably disinterested in the whole thing.

The well used waterfront storehouse of the Mouat’s building seen here on a dark and dreary—but somehow lovely—November afternoon. You can also see the storehouse in this 1928 photo at the Salt Spring Island Archives.
