Taking a Shower

I crept out of the house onto the driveway as fast and as silently as I could, light rain was falling and I managed to take one more picture with flash, the owl was watching me and a raindrop gives a moody moon effect in the picture.

Barred Owl

In the evenings and at dusk we hear these chaps behind the house and we were enthralled last night when one flew past our side window and landed on our hydro wires in front of the house. This first picture was taken through the front window.

Buzzing the Gazebo

A little slower than the Fraser Blues but here we are buzzing Gibsons Pier and Gazebo back in June, Thanks to my mother-in-law for the great picture. She has documented her trip across Canada and a visit here to Gibsons in her blog http://escapingchorley.blogspot.com/

Artisan IPA

Bowen Island Brewery (which isn't on Bowen Island) have excelled in their latest offering of an Artisan crafted India Pale Ale. This, in our opinion, exceeds the tasty quotient of Bowen Island Extra Pale Ale. This is indeed a very tasty beer.

Today in Tomatoes

I think we will be having a tsunami of tomatoes in the next few weeks.
