Hello gang....
I thought I would finally put up a new post......amazing I know !!


Not to much to report. This weekend I stayed on the Mainland cause Don had a wedding to attend in Duncan. So I took the opportunity to hang out with Sara and Jake. I have only seen them twice since they have been back so it was long over due. Saturday I headed over to North Van where they are staying with Sara and Mike Yates. Sara & Mike have a really nice place which is HUGE !! We all went for a walk to Lynn Valley (at least I think that is where we were !!!).... me, Sara, Jake, Sara & some of her other family members......an of course Zilla. Brad was working so no walk from him. After the walk we went back to the Yate's for a great BBQ, awesome homemade Sangria and topped all off with cheesecake.....yummm.

Jaker's on the potty....YAY !!















Jaker's on the slide at the park.














Me sportin' a great burn reading the Jake.













Jake being Jake.











Sara and Jake

















A couple weeks back now.....Don and I ventured over to Protection Island, had a good lunch at the Pub then walked across to New Castle Island to do some exploring. We had good timing to cross over...only had to jump across a 5 foot wide river.......well at least if was only like a foot deep !! Needless to say.....I didn't quite make the jump. Anyway.....we trooped on in the rain (yes it was a crappy, rainy weekend adventure !!) with my wet feet to check out the Island. The rain stopped.....and we walked all around the Island. Man I never realized just how big New Castle Island really is......pretty big walk, but good. Along our walk we saw lots of sea creatures on the beach (low tide) and other interesting things.

Don jumpin the stream to get to New Castle.











Ok...anyone know what this is ??
I think it is made from sand from some sea creature.
















Starfish....

Swamp on New Castle and a machine that carves a round stone out of the ground so the could be used in the Pulp & Paper Mills.















Don and his "catch of the day"















Now....you know me....I can't possibly let "some guy" get the biggest "catch of the day".......now can I....HELL NO !!!
