6:29 a.m. Salt Spring Island looking over Prevost Island towards Active Pass
A warm orange light at dawn paints a clear sky, the top of distant coastal mountains and the ocean at Active Pass.

This is a portion of the view from a Seymour Heights property. It’s a large parcel that also includes some views to the north, some valley views and a more southernly ocean view including Saturna and the San Juan Islands.
The panoramic view above includes Salt spring Island, the Sister Islands and Chocolate Beach (Ganges Harbour) in the foreground. Then, above that, Trincomali Channel, Parker Island, Active Pass, and Galiano, Prevost, Pender and Mayne Islands. Above that is Georgia Strait and the mainland.
Here’s a cropped portion which shows more detail of the Active Pass area:

Two spring Beetles get together at Centennial Park
No sooner had I grabbed this quick shot than the driver of the dirtier VW started up and pulled away. I didn’t notice a driver in the car because of the tinted windows. Looks like she has just finished one more gulp of coffee and is about to beetle off somewhere.

Taking the new bridge across the creek (and skunk cabbage) to the Salt Spring Library.

Ann Marie Davidson’s intermediate class took part in the Salt Spring Conservancy’s Stewards in Training School Program yesterday.
Great day.
Stylish hat on a delightful little person.
