Quadra Time

Hello Mountains!

Evening light.

More evening light.

Notice the interesting cloud formation and the drift wood traveling in a V formation. Like the geese?

Not sure if this is a glacier or just a snow bank but I love the reflection.

Just one more evening photo with more reflections.

Looking up the channel on the other side of Quadra. See the ferry about to disappear around the point?

Okay this is random, but on our way to the Cove in a small field is this helicopter. Why? How? What?
Weather is always interesting and a topic of discussion. Fog was our visitor for a couple of days. Both eerie and beautiful.
Buck's bench and the fog. Notice - no mountains.

Frost on our windshield. Pretty patterns. Cold too!

Frost on the beach area. It was chilly when this photo was taken but most of January has been quite mild.
Buck's new Toyota Tacoma truck. He is very proud of it, but he also hates to drive it and get it dirty.

Buck enjoying his birthday bench made of driftwood.
Ski day on Mt. Washington. Buck is the red dot on the lift.

Ski bunny?

View from the mountain, see the cloud bank below. It was very dark and gray below and made it hard to believe we had sun on the mountain.

Ski guy.

The ferry coming to pick us up in Campbell River on a sunny day.

Part of the ferry line. Look carefully and you can see mountains in the background.
Saoirse and Aine. Wearing my cat tea cozy as a hat is a favorite activity. The orange sippy cup is also very popular.


Mia coming to visit with snowflakes coming down. They didn't stick.


Here comes Sarah.






The 3 girls and the snow flakes.
Saoirse being coy.
There's that smile we all love.
The latest renovation job on the house is about to begin. It will happen while we are gone. Here is a before photo.
Another before.
Taking things down and moving things out makes the place look bare.

And chilly without the window shades. The table has shrunk because we removed the leaf.

Trucker Buck loads his Toy(ota).
Another use for the truck...hauling furniture and wife to the shed to store.
Off the furniture goes..stay tuned for the after photos... probably in May.
