The downside of having such a good day
yesterday was I took so many pictures I crashed my computer, or thought I
had. Couldn’t get the little wheel to
stop turning or shut it down and until it died sometime in the night and was
born again this morning I thought I was in big trouble. But dear reader as you can see we are back in
the ether so to speak.
The other downside was that I woke up to
rain, and the forcast was for more and heavier rain for the next few days. Some of my friends and I have thought it
would be great to be on Long Beach in the rain.
Well not this kind of rain, no big storm, no mist, no fog just dull, flat, grey
light, lots of wet nothing. I packed up and Strider roard back to the east coast of the island at a
blistering speed of 25-60 km/hr most of the way to Alberni. A stop at McMillan Park for the first time in the fall, and the
understory was lovely.
Now I’m settled
into a campground south of Nanaimo. There was time for a good walk around
the forest trails by the water before the rain caught up to me. It is fine, I’m cozy, will try to load
pictures again and am reading a fascinating book, The Gene: An Intimate
History. No kidding, it really is amazing especially because of the latest winner of the nobel prize.
