Cocoon

I think I would’ve also wrapped the rope on the inside of the right leg as they did on the left. And if a gust comes up from the bottom, he’s toast. Speaking of toast. A small microwave would be optimal for heating coffee in the morning. Colourful Christmas lights strung down the ropes might be a nice addition as well. Ah home sweet home.

20160625_142706 copy.jpgThis afternoon I met artist Andy Anissimoff while at the Squamish Sunday Farmer’s Market. There’s a fantastic energy in his paintings. His brushstrokes are strong and bold. He captures everything that I love about hiking from peak to creek. Pop by the Tantalus Art Galley in Squamish to view more of his work. I had to pick up this beautiful print of The Chief (pictured above). I also grabbed another print of a bear. One day, I’ll own an original!

Done

IMG_9003What a day! Based on my Batman watch, I think I broke 2 hours! A record! And a big thank you to my buddy Chris! As I was heading down to the race, my water bladder hose separated from the pack and water began streaming down my back like Shannon Falls! Fortunately, Chris filled it back up for me and sent me off to race. Best friend 🙂
