The Jolly Hobos | Brad & Ying

We went back to the Goats on the Roof market today, they were much more active than the other day. The goats have lots of space, food and really green grass. There is a nice goat territory out the back where they rotate different sets of goats.

Added to my list.

Then you seem to be living in a self imposed imformation bubble. The UN has stated that Israel is committing genocide in Palestine. Ex Israeli PM, Ehud Olmert, says Israel is committing war crimes against Palestine. Netanyahu himself has said "there will be no Palestinian state" when he is finished

So, you're in support of genocide?

Looks beautiful!

Lol - you would need to have very, very, little people! 😃

So what kind of idiot has 8 foot ceilings in their house yet decides to install hanging lights!?

Oh wow - I've ever seen columns with the cut away underneath before - very cool!

Noted for next year's visit! 👍

Well read cat 🥰

Who remembers Lincoln Logs the building blocks?

My obsession with them as a young lad informs my view that this is the perfect log cabin!

Qualicom Falls Park this morning.

After a morning hike nothing beats a coffee and cake at the local market with goats on the roof!

Morning waterfall hike - lots of water, trees and moss - no people 👍👍

Since on a nautical theme to describe the current situation in the US, I think this stanza from Coleridge's Rime of the Ancient Mariner also sums it well:

The very deep did rot: O Christ!
That ever this should be!
Yea, slimy things did crawl with legs
Upon the slimy sea.

Morning sunlight bursts through the old growth forest, highlighting the moss dripping from these relatively young Douglas Fir trees.

I can only guarantee the second one. But I try for both 😇

Top shot Keith!

Have a great trip.

This playful harbor seal was watching me from underwater. It zoomed around for a few minutes, stopping occasionally to look up.

We did a kayak to there - had a rest on the beach. Was a beautiful spot.

The little town of Chemainus on Vancouver Island is really charming. It is famous for its numerous mural depicting scenes and stories from the towns history.

We haven't seen one in the wild - I'm always hopeful. Ying wants to make lots of noise 😄

Stoney Hill Trail Loop Stony Hill is a quiet, peaceful walk with extraordinary views of Sansum Narrows. It's a clear, obvious paths that offers beautiful views. The trail is well marked at the beginning and end. There is an area that gets a little bit steep at one point and has some rocks and roots but is very doable for most skills levels. This is a fairly busy trail so expect company on your hike. Decent shoes with grip are a plus as there's lots of incline and decline on the way, but they are not too difficult.

Sure thing. It's Stoney Hills Loop, Cherry Point, Vancouver Island.
