Great Day to Be Alive!

Part of living on the Pacific Coast of Canada is dealing with grey wet winters. We knew what we were getting ourselves into when we moved here and are enjoying the warm rainy days versus a foot of snow and minus 10 degrees (yes, really, Alberta already has full on winter). After a long hot dry summer the rains are here. Occasionally though the grey days make way for a sunny georgeous day like this past Saturday. We took a walk on the beach to celebrate.

Mr. Seal out enjoying the sunshine.

The ducks were loving the beautiful weather as well.






After this sunny Saturday we had three days of socked in rain-but the sun came out again today and I got to mow the lawn. Quite a treat in November for me as in the past I have been freezing and shovelling snow! Cheers!

  2. How gorgeous! I don't think I could survive if I didn't live near water. Your pictures perfectly illustrate why!

    1. Thanks - the Ocean was 90% of the reason why we moved here to the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island.

    1. Yes, very nice. Although, parts of BC do already have snow the coast is always warmer.

    1. A Canon Rebel T3i. I bought it last year - expensive but seriously the best thing I have bought myself in the last 10 years. No regrets. I have taken over 1000 photos since buying it. If my house burned down I would grab hubby, hamster and my camera :)
