A beautiful hike on a rare (this year) sunny spring day. Despite the wet spring weather, south-facing rocky areas are already bone dry.

These beauties are hiding out in the wooded area of the Vesuvius ferry parking lot.

Many places in Canada employ this cheery flower as a sign of Spring and of hope. Daffodils are growing everywhere on Salt Spring Island; often in the wild where they seem to look after themselves just fine.
