What our dog did while we went to Qualicum for the weekend

Picture by Roger

Jane took the dogs to look for chanterelle this weekend while we were away. We were bringing "In Juliette's"s Garden" to the Qualicum Theatre Festival. Lucky stayed next door with his best friend Ruffi (an Icelandic shepherd). The play went really well, I got to play with a really great light board and 48 lights and we had a good weekend.

PS. " The Gabriola Players performance of "In Juliet's Garden", which debuted at Gabriola's own Theatre Festival in August and was reprised for the adjudicated one-act play festival at The Village Theatre in Qualicum Beach on Saturday evening, yesterday received the award for "Best Ensemble" – which honours the cast, crew, director, music, costume, make-up, set design ... well-deserved recognition for everyone, and a special mention for Christine who received a personal excellence award for her wonderful portrayal of Ophelia".

Amphitrite Point, Ucluelet

Spent a few hours near the lighthouse at Amphitrite Point watching the huge waves roll across the Pacific from Japan. The very western edge of Canada.

Went bear "shooting" in Ucluelet again.

Looks like the salmon run is almost over. Fewer bears but good pictures - more to come.
