February This and That

I haven't been posting much lately. It's true that we've settled into a nice quiet winter routine here in West Vancouver, but, we also have been out and about quite a bit even though the weather hasn't been conducive for much outdoor activity. Drenching rains continue for days on end. They don't call it the "We[s]t Coast" for nothing.We've just come out of one six day, very dismal, wet stretch to enjoy a single day of beautiful sunshine before disappearing again into another low pressure system with rain forecast every single day for another week. We're not really complaining, honest! The weather is warm, averaging around +10C and for those of you still frozen into winter in other parts of Canada, the following photograph is for you. Crocuses were up here on February 8!



We've done a few muddy scrambles along hiking trails. This photo is of Cleveland Dam in Capilano Canyon.



We took a trip to White Rock BC, just at the Canada/US border. They have a lovely pier reminiscent of the many that we visited while in the UK.

We've trekked all over Vancouver, this colourful street art is at Granville Island.



We also visited a lovely community in North Vancouver, Deep Cove.
