Here’s a look at the newly installed roof on ArtSpring (Salt Spring’s Centre for the Arts).
Apparently this is a recycled-rubber-tire-shake-roof which keeps about 600 tires out of the landfill and has a 50 year guarantee. Good roofing choice?

Morning routine with laté, iPad and a great spot for people watching though the big open air counter.

The Impossible Daytrip
Well, almost impossible. You can take the Saturday early morning direct ferry to Tsawwassen. Drive the Coquihalla race track to West Kelowna and arrive by noon. Visit a few wineries and get back to Salt Spring via the evening direct ferry.
Our getaway included an overnight in West Kelowna. And we did visit Quail’s Gate (best modern architecture), Little Straw Vineyards (more our speed with great lunch and wines), and Mission Hill (best views, grounds and artwork).
Both photos are from Mission Hill.
Dodge 700 Heavy
In a ferry line-up heading to the Island
Sporting collector plates, this old Dodge has clearly been lovingly restored.
Iridescent Insect
Dragonfly seen at the Saturday Market and created by Sean Goddard on Salt Spring Island. It’s about 60cm long.
Interesting to view this insect from different angles and watch the colours change in the light. (and watch the wings cast a shadow in a colour different from the wing itself…)
