River Beauty
Still cool, gorgeous and green in a nearby river. A place to be during this drought.
Can you have a drought in a temperate rainforest?
Update July 3, 11 am:
Apparently the answer is yes. It’s official:
VICTORIA – Responding to dry conditions, the Government of B.C. has announced a Level 4 drought rating for Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands, and taken the additional action of suspending angling in streams and rivers throughout southern Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands due to ongoing low stream flows and warming water temperatures.
…more info at the govt. website.
Forest Treasure
Strange as it seems I was in this forest on business when I stumbled upon this surprise.
Anyone know the make, model, year?
Summer Sign
Gulf Island Secondary School (GISS) on Salt Spring Island
‘CLOSED’ seems a bit harsh. Lots goes on behind the scenes in a school district during the summer. But I’ve not seen the playing fields so brown—ever. Perhaps it’s just the the fields that are closed.
Evening on Salt Spring Island
A delightful Saturday sunset as seen from Fernwood Pier on the north end of Salt Spring Island
This is a great place to get a reprieve from the unusual late day heat, particularly with a north-west breeze.
Inland on the west-facing rock the thermometer read 31 degrees. But it was goose-bump/chicken-skin weather watching the sunset.
