In its private patch of morning sunshine, a tug towing wood-chip barges heads for the mill at Crofton on Vancouver Island.
Howe Sound Queen to the Rescue
We made a quick stop on the Howe Sound Queen after leaving Vesuvius. The crew rapidly deployed the rescue boat and sped off to aid a…wait for it…
jet ski.
Good practice and fun for the crew (who clearly know what they were doing) and a good show for the passengers.
Golden Coast
Chesterman Beach near Tofino on a golden spring evening.
One set of clouds sailed by just as the sunset was warming up. I think it adds visual interest.
And the view at your feet (photo below) was lovely with the reflected gold of the sky.
And it sounded and smelled great.
Just a wonderful place for a body and mind tune-up.
*Today’s post is tagged with ‘Daytrip’ though perhaps an ‘Off-Island’ tag needs to be started. So yes, you can get to this spot (from Salt Spring Island) and back in a day, but if you stay for the sunset this time of year, there’s no way you’re making the last ferry. But then again, you really should stay for a couple of days…
Oh, and by the way, ‘tags’ on websites just help you search for all the posts with that tag. So clicking on the ‘Daytrip’ on the bottom right of the page will find all the ‘Daytrip’ pages for you.
People Pier
Lots of people on Fernwood Pier these changeable spring days.
And lots of dogs ready to engage in games of leash tangle.
And superb clouds lurking over Galiano Island.
And Happy May, 2015.
On the Other Side
The grass is always greener.
One of four Alpacas on the farm across from Drummond Park. Apparently named John, Paul, George and Ringo.
I asked this guy his name but he was just to darned busy to reply.
