French Creek

 So far, this June hadn't been much of a summer. Nonetheless, the cloudy days were great for getting out and exploring beaches. This day (2020-06-22) found us snooping around beaches just south of Qualicum Beach. Here is a "postcard" from the banks of French Creek (with the French Creek harbour in the distance).

Quesnel - Riverfront Trail

It's May (2016-05-08), so there's a good chance we're in Quesnel. And, when in Quesnel, why not take a stroll on Riverfront Trail? The May sun was warming things up and Spring was everywhere.

Spuzzum - Alexandra Bridge

On our circular tour of south western British Columbia, Norbert and I spotted the turn-off to Alexandra Bridge Provincial Park. For years I'd been wanting to come here to view the old bridge but, for some reason, had always missed the entrance. This time, coming south along Highway 97, I got lucky.

It's just a short walk from the parking lot to the old bridge itself. The walk is worth it, if only to feel and hear the might of the Fraser River. I suppose, this being late June, the river was running particularly high.

Ladner - Fraser River Navigation Beacon

Although the Fraser River was running quite high in early July, a bunch of us went kayaking out of Ladner. Here, in this Postcard, we pass by a navigation beacon.
