July 5th 2010

It has been a busy week, and I didn't get as many pictures as I wanted from the garden.  We have had records amount of rains over the past few months.  We want summer to arrive like right now!  

I have had a couple health issues and will be back into gardening soon.   I hope to post some more photos soon.

I saw this on the web......cute birdhouse


Here I am checking on the salmon we caught - No I wasn't kissing it.


My fave Lilly......love these colours


My darkest coloured lilly  I only have two


My Passion plant blooming


Sweet Willliam


So many to choose from


Now the pink variety......Lots!
a lone fushia blooming.


What are these called?  So bright yellow


Fishing has been great on our new boat.  Friday caught a 12 lber, Saturday a 25lber, Sunday a 18lber, Monday two 30ish lber and a smaller 12lber..  Nice eh?   great fish  .....Will be enjoyed by everyone we gave them too, and the guys on the boat that caught them too.......Awsome.

Day on the boat and over to Anvil Island to Explore

This was today on Anvil Island


the old homestead on the island


Just long grass blowing in the wind


This was quite interesting as its a forest of wild Holly trees....they grow wild on the island and tall and massive trees.


If you look closely you can see the seals swimming in front of the boat today  (Sea to Sky Highway in the distance)


The Spring Salmon we caught today.  About 12 lbs or so.
