In May we took the ferry to
Gibsons and headed north to the
Pender Harbour area. With friends Colleen and Eric, we went to see the
Fibreartnetwork Exhibit 'Elements' at the Yurts. Located on Gunboat Bay, the all-weather yurts are built on a large platform.
Here is the link to the full show:

A a couple of casual shots: Pat Crucil who did a fantastic job of organizing the show!

Yvonne's studio is in another yurt with a wonderful array of fibre and yarn.

This is the view from the deck of the B&B we stayed at:
A sailboat slips by in the dusk.
Hummingbirds buzzed around
and, of course there is security on patrol!
The house is perched on a bluff and well designed for two couples to share.
Arbutus grows along the coast, a tree that loses its bark, not its leaves.
Seagulls are a standard on the Pacific Coast.
A fisherman hangs out at the local General store.
The Sunshine Coast has fascinating names: Gunboat Bay,
Buccaneer Bay, Secret Cove and
Smugglers' Cove.
One of the
pirates must have lost his parrot!
Home again ... watching the patterns left in the Ocean by the ferry.
