Big rain storm complete with thunder and lightning last night around 3 am. Hail for a short time this morning. Now this. The great thing about Vancouver weather - if you don't like it - just wait a minute... #fishermanscove #westvancouver #howesound #marina #catalina22

Great sky over Vancouver Island and the Strait of Georgia late this afternoon, ahead of a big storm front on the way. Bonus, you can see a Harbour Porpoise - one of about 6 that cruised within a few metres of my sailboat. I tried to keep up but I was doing about 2 knots in a whisper of a breeze and they looked to be doing 10 or 12 knots. . . . .... . . #harbourporpoise #howesound #straitofgeorgia #sailing #catalina22 #vancouver See more

Usually give you the 'on the water' view. Here's a shot of Fishermn's Cove (lower left, home of Thunderbird Marina where Madsu is moored), Eagle Harbour is just above that behind the trees, Eagle Island on the right.

This view makes me happy and sad. It's from Fisherman's Cove, looking out into Howe Sound. It makes me happy when I'm heading out on the boat - and sad when I'm heading back in and look back to where I've just come from. . #catalina22 #howesound #sailing vancouver
