Arbutus trees are often suggestive of the human forn. This one is like a grasping hand.

Ah the summer in GIbsons. Our town really comes alive with the sun.

Ah the summer sun, caught gleaming through the leaves.

One more from our trip to Tahsis. THis one shows more of the inlet and mountains.

Another orange poppy for Lorien.

I'd sure hate to be in that sailboat.

Huge Douglas Firs like this one used to be a common sight up and down the coast. Now they are only found in rare pockets of protected forest.

A sunset picture from this spring. THis kid was very absorbed in the marine environment.

THe rich greens of a rainforest spring greeted us on our walk through Sechelt's Hidden Grove.

Yet another from frozen Edwards Lake. Brr...At least it was sunny.

Anotyher misty lake picture. I was going for a simple zen like approach for this image.

I lovew arbutus trees, especially when set against one of our endless pacific vistas.

You can see all the way to Vancouver Island, but you can't see our house...:)

Pender Harbour from the top of Mount Daniel. They call it the drowned landscape.

Sunset at Roberts Creek, a great ending to another beautiful Sunshine Coast day.

Well we got our reservation for the West Coast Trail in August, so to celebrate here is a pic from last year.
