Sunk

An abandoned boat, taken in Winter near Pender Harbour, modified via Photoshop. Inspired by Kiff Holland.

Kiff Holland SFCA

We keep mentioning Kiff Holland, he is an established Canadian Artist who settled in British Columbia. We bought a couple of his works back in Ontario, they provided a daily impetus to "reach the beach" here.

Daily Bread

Saturday, Bread and Pizza day. I doubled up on the fluids by accident so I added more ingredients and made a megaloaf, we are using a loaf tin now, makes for more rectangular toast and sandwiches. Light, fluffy whole wheat bread with added fibre, tastes like Hovis, makes great toast.

Million dollar Squat

Soon to be homes of the rich and famous...

Squamish Nation

Today during our paddle we made a beach landing on the strip of waterfront property around Granthams landing that belongs to the Squamish Nation, the houses are now empty, tenants have been moved on and systematically they are being demolished to make way for new development.

We also learnt that climbing back onto the Tarpon in the surf gives mega wet bottoms.

Coles

They have been working on Coles Marine Ways site lately, clearing it off no doubt for a multi-million dollar development. Waterfront property, does not look so great at the moment, but I'll post updates as time goes by.
