Yes, it is November

The weather has been quite remarkable over the last week, of course we have had some rain, but hey, it cannot be green without that liquid sunshine.

A few deer down at the golf club, on our walk into Sooke.


Lest We Forget

Another year has passed most of us by, and on Monday, 11th November Karen and myself walked into town and attended the remembrance day activities at the Sooke Legion. It was very well attended by the town, young and old alike.

The Legion has been so well attended in the last two years, and is so full after the ceremony, that we have to walk the hundred yards to Sooke Brewery, as usual, friends and service people also attended, and as usual, it was a quiet, thoughtful, yet happy time at the brewery.

We raised a toast to them all.


The Gauntlet

These Sea Lions at Whiffin Spit are one major reason why a large amount of the salmon don't even make it to Sooke river.


Dead Fish Don't Swim Home


It's that time of the year again, the salmon struggle through the bay area, up the Sooke River and unfortunately, quite a large number of them never make it. These four, for some reason, had been placed in a pattern on the shore line.
