Beacon Hill Park (in Victoria, on Vancouver Island) with the boys - what I would have affectionately called them then - almost two years ago. The terrain when we first entered was rocky, green, and lush. As we moved further into the park, towards the beach and the Salish Sea, we could see significant cloud cover and mountains in the distance (Washington state, I believe). It was pretty overwhelming, I recall. Now this time and place seem so distant - so much has happened in two years - and it is so cold right now! In February 2010 when these images were taken (during our escape away from Vancouver and the busy-ness of the Winter Olympics), it was deliciously warm outside. People were lazing on the beach and children were in long sleeved shirts. All just visions in my head now.
