The Perfect Day

Sunset at Oyster Bay - Wonderful to watch anywhere over water, but it is kind of special here, because this is where I grew up. Watch gulls, sandpipers, eagles and great Herons just adds to the intrigue.

Skyline - Campbell River

I know this is nothing like the skyline of Vancouver, Seattle or New York, but as one that remembers as a child, Campbell River being a little hicktown of fishing and logging residents, I am pleased and impressed with the progress. Actually, from the air, Campbell River would be 20 times this size, but I especially liked the mountain on the mainland of this picture, with the harbor in the foreground. We have 3 or four such boat basins, so skyline is very much a misnomer, but I still like this picture.

Oyster Bay

Right next to all those meadows, the tide is out and tourists or locals are enjoying the miles of sand and tide pools. This is where I lived as a child, and I remember right under all those barnacles were numerous delicious butter clams. Reminds me of the scrumpuous Cape Cod Clam Chower we enjoyed on cold winter nights.

Shoreline Meadows

My friend left me a message about this meadow a few days ago, and so today the weather was perfect, and I had the day off. Camera in hand we both went go investigate, and were not disappointed. There were acres and acres of beautiful blossoms set against the backdrop of a stunning shoreline.
