Just around the corner…


No matter where we go or where we've been there's always something new - just around the corner. Take for instance the cruising ground within a triple home run (or there abouts if there is such a thing) of Lund, BC. Guided here by friends newly met, we find ourselves in a quiet corner of Mother Nature's 'best yet'. It's not the perfect spot for Maddie (not too much in the way of a sandy beach or grass field) but it's an opportunity for her to take her exercise like any other boater….enjoying the ups and downs of raised decks, lowered dinghies and stair cases. For us, it's quiet, clean, unpopulated (save for an old fish farm further down the inlet) and provides a chance to hunker down with a good book while SSpirit (as we call her) serenely does a very slow dance on her ground tackle. We're protected from most winds and, while the skies are mostly grey today, the sun lurks merrily behind them, peeking out from time to time. Ahhh, nothing like a cold beer and a good book surrounded by the beauty of a BC coastline. A few photos of our lazy day follow. Best always… CJ

First order of business - dinghy trip ashore


Can we go faster? 


Off to set the prawn trap!


Waiting for her next dinghy ride.
