We returned to Larry & Judy from a great time in Ucluelet. Richard, a neighbour and friend invited us to go fishing on the Sound which runs out to the Pacific. The salmon were apparently starting to run. A 6am start saw us down at the harbour and setting out on Richards fishing boat. He's a professional captain who normally single crews a 45ft fishing vessel catching salmon, tuna, halibut, crab and oysters. Unfortunately, like the rest of the flotilla on the water on Saturday morning we trolled up and down without catching a single fish. Never mind we had a nice morning anyway. The weather was still fabulous so in the afternoon we were all happy to go river tubing down the Sommos river with Sue, L&J's good friend and tenant. A very relaxing 4 ... read more

If ever you start to think there are no places on Earth that can surprise or inspire you, you need to go to this park. Again, we need to thank our friends, Mark and Judy, for recommending we visit. Here are the highlights: Clearwater Lake – We drove to the lake and took our sturdy red canoe off the truck again. (Well, actually, David does all that on and off stuff, I push a little bit up and a little bit down and try not to get in the way.) Fortunately, this lake did have a dock we could use and David kept his feet dry. This is a great lake for canoeing on and there were others out enjoying the day. Some of the canoes were loaded with kids, dogs and camping supplies. For most ... read more

August 31, 2013 – North Vancouver to Clearwater, BC Arrived in Clearwater at around 5pm this evening after a rather long drive (about 6 hours) from North Vancouver. The weather was good and the drive, beautiful, but it was longer than expected thanks to nightmare traffic around the Langley area. Probably partly due to the inevitable summer road works and partly it being Labour Day weekend and no doubt for a lot of people, a last chance getaway before school begins next week. Gradually the traffic eased as we got further away from Greater Vancouver and the rest of the way was easy driving. Stopping very briefly in Merritt for a late lunch and then again briefly for food for a meal later we finally arrived at a beautiful spot. We’re staying just the one night ... read more
