Well, kinda. It ain’t Johnny O’Yates, but his distant French-Canadian cousin, Marcel –

 

Let’s see what he gets into this weekend….

Don’t ask me how it happened,

Posted on July 22, 2012 by cyetso

It looks cool, I think –

 

I’m sure there’s a technique involved. I’ll call it ‘blind luck out of a train window somewhere between Whistler and Vancouver’.

Just like France

Posted on July 21, 2012 by cyetso

In honor of the last bit of the Tour de France today, the white cows came out on our drive around BC –

 

Absolutely made Marla’s day. We haven’t seen white cows since we left Paris. I don’t know what they’re for – Dairy? Meat? Companionship? They’re cool though.

Quattro!

Posted on July 20, 2012 by cyetso

With Pop at Nicklaus North, in a soaking rainstorm for the first 5 or 6 holes. 17 was a beaut though –

 

It’s not about the courses you play, it’s the company you keep.

 

Thanks Pop!

That’s one ugly boat you have there Sir –

But then again, I don’t have a boat for anyone to call ugly.

The dog doesn’t seem to mind either.

As advertised earlier,

I thought I’d get you a photo of the hummingbirds. I sat for an hour today with the lens aimed at this –

 

No birds, but the gatos thought I was nuts for sitting there for so long without taking a photo. Hopps posed long enough for a decent shot –

 

I’m glad she didn’t rip my arm off or anything like that.

Barley, on the other hand, was rather content to ignore me and my silly ideas –

 

 

Good work boy, you relax for a bit.

 

Manana for you cats…..

Slow this year

Posted on July 10, 2012 by cyetso

Don’t know what these guys are called (surprise, surprise), but they’re slowly making their selves be seen –

 

In a few weeks, if things go to plan, they’ll be a brilliant color of blue. Likely the same color we’re going to paint the house…..
