Vernon Morning

September 26, 2016

Vernon, BC
We’re back from a two week excursion to the Kootenays.

As I catch up with Salt Spring work, please enjoy some moments from our journey.

This first image is along a twisty backroad through farms/ranches and vineyards near Vernon.

Alone on Mayne, a Ferry Tale

June 2, 2016

Solo Journey

Travel to the other Southern Gulf Islands can sometimes be an odd experience.

Twice recently I was the ONLY vehicle in the parking lot. In my effort to return to Salt Spring, I left from Saturna with a smattering of cars. I got off at Mayne Island, drove up past the cars in the terminal, and headed back down in lane 9. Some other cars got off the ferry and disappeared. The walk on passengers and all the cars waiting in the terminal loaded (…which is an entertaining time as some cars are directed to drive on normally, some to turn at the far end of the boat so they are facing back to the terminal, while others are directed to back onto the ferry).

So when those shenanigans were complete, I looked around and was startled to find I was the only car in the terminal. The ferry attendants had disappeared and it was sunny, still and silent. And remained that way for a long time—until I too had a chance to demonstrate my ‘backing up around a corner skills’ into lanes of traffic squeezed onto a ferry.

Aerial Circus at SIMS

Circus at SIMS

Two ‘Circus’ students mid way through a routine in the Salt Spring Island Middle School gym. The feet of the bottom girl (also hanging below the girl pictured) are helping support the girl we’re looking at. Both are relying on the blue fabric to keep them from crashing down on the mats. Circus is one of the exploratory classes at the school this year.

If you want to feel old and creaky, just watch these two for a minute.

Filed under ‘things you don’t see in the city’.  Is signage getting out of control in your neck of the woods?
