Another home for your Saturday viewing pleasure… and this one stretches the 602 square foot limit for a cottage on a Salt Spring acreage with some of the building bumped out/cantilevered past the foundation (some properties, usually 5 acres or more are allowed a second dwelling with a maximum 602 sq. ft.).
In the photo above it’s just after sunset and we’re looking from outside, through the kitchen window, with dining and living beyond. That’s a two sided gas fireplace– the other side is outside on a covered patio.
Below is the morning view as seen from all the view windows (including the master bedroom).

An interesting northwest sky a few nights ago.

Here’s a look at the organic farm area at the back of the Harbour House Hotel. Produce is used in the hotel restaurant and sold at a farm stand in the hotel parking lot.

Supermoon 8:35 pm, August 10, 2014
There was a big crowd out in Ganges to watch the moon rise Sunday. The Coast Guard area provided a good platform to view the moon which rose in the east-south east (105º). Some low cloud and haze provided great colour when the moon was near the horizon. Apparently this was “the biggest and brightest moon in 20 years.”
By 9:10 pm darkness was setting in and more detail was visible:
