Day in the Life of Salt Spring

While looking through my archives for a particular image, I stumbled across this one. I thought it might give you a giggle, and in a way it’s timely…

I realized I completely forgot about the Driftwood’s annual A Day in the Life of Salt Spring which was (I think) shot one week ago today. How things change; there was a time I’d spend the equivalent of three working days on the Day in the Life project.

Does anyone know anything about this year’s project? See anyone out for the Driftwood?

Oh, by the way, this photo was taken at 7:15 am on June 20, 2008. I thought it was perfect for the Day in the Life project because after a couple of years of working on this project, we we’re struggling to provide an insight to the sometimes unusual or unexpected daily life on Salt Spring Island. So even in 2013, I think this qualifies. And Tim’s not a little guy, but his truck’s a monster. Here’s the caption I provided at the time:

Tim Duke’s 2004 F-350 was hand built for the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show. Street legal with economical 6 litre diesel, the truck has only driven 8000 KM. Tim was heading off island that morning where the truck would receive a custom interior.
