We’ve just returned from a wonderful 5 days of refreshment at Corinne’s beach house located in Sooke, BC (near Victoria) for our 35th Anniversary. We booked it through … Corinne (Airbnb) <express@airbnb.com> We were very pleased with our stay there. This first group of photos are various shots of the exterior of the home. I will put up several more posts this week featuring some interesting stuff during this trip.
Mount Cheam is a landmark of the Fraser Valley Region city of Chilliwack – about 2 hours drive from downtown Vancouver. My wife and I plan to do some hiking up there amongst the wild flowers this summer before we get too old. I had already taken some shots of Cheam when these geese flew into range – this is best of several shots.

I’m not sure why I like this curious image of snow-laden trees and shrubs against the backdrop of our school. Hard to find an appropriate caption!
I was encouraged by nature blogger Pete Hillman to post these. We’ve recently had two large, prolonged dumps of snow here in the Vancouver, BC region. Apparently the largest cumulative amount in 72 years.
One of the big Ponderosa Pines across the street … We’ve had a very unusual amount and duration of snow in the Vancouver, BC area this winter.
