A Boy and his Dog

A boy plays with his dog on Chesterman Beach

A boy revs up his dog for a rambunctious romp on Chesterman Beach.

It’s the far limits of a day trip from Salt Spring Island, but if you leave on the first Vesuvius ferry you can be there around 10:30. Stay until late afternoon and make it back, happily exhausted, via a late ferry. Sometimes you just have to heed the call of the West Coast…

    What a joyful scene! Looks like they got to the West Coast without the aid of a boat… ran and leaped the whole way…

    I was too. But then again, I find lots to smile about walking along a huge sandy beach on the coast.

    Norman Rockwell would have liked this scene. Pure delight.

      I think you’re right. Hope things are good in the big city!
