The River Is Rising
Joel and I are very fortunate to live at the top of a hill. I might not normally think that but everything seems to be flooding up in our area at the moment. The poor folks over in Sicamous are being evacuated and roads our closed in many directions due to mudslides. Be careful out…

High Waters & Road Rash
We rode 25 km today but the Thompson rivers didn’t make it easy. The park that we usually ride through is almost under water. Half of the arena parking lot is already wet. The water we waided through last week is now much higher. Even though there is tape up everywhere people seem quite fascinated…

We are What We Do
I know that we are not “supposed” to define ourselves by our occupations but I think everyone falls prey to it every now and again. I mean, when I’m told to introduce myself to a group I nearly always say where I work. When I went to photography school I struggled with saying “I’m a…

The Further Non-Adventures of Stunt Cat
Willow is taking some time off from being an adventurer. She is now finished her round of antibiotics and we’ve stopped the pain medication. She doesn’t seem to be in pain anymore (as you can tell by the slightly relaxed pose above heh) I have no idea how long it takes to heal a ruptured…

Beware the Ides of June
This is usually a beach. The river is higher right now than I’ve ever seen it. (See my last post where we were wading through it). Today’s ride took us through Riverside park, across the bridge to the North shore. We rode out around McArthur Island and back. It was about 15 km in total…

The Story of My Bicycle
I didn’t think buying a bike would be so difficult! first of all – nearly all the bike shops in Kamloops were closed. I love the outdoors, it didn’t occur to me that many people would think it odd to consider cycling in December in northern BC. They’re missing out. I suppose that’s not…

The Adventures of Stunt Cat
Willow likes to run around like a freak after she poos. Cat thing ? I dunno. Last week she didn’t know the patio door was closed and ran full tilt into the glass. She even left a little kitty face smear. She seemed ok. Then a few days later we noticed she couldn’t hear. Two…
