I've been watching the Olympics the past few days....cheering on the Americans, as I'm sure readers of this blog are doing. They have often run a commercial promoting British Columbia, using well known figures to us who are Canadians. However, in all of the photographic shots around B.C., I haven't seen MY favorite part of B.C. So I went back to photos I have of two trips and wanted to share that with you. I am posting the link to my Google Web Album of Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, Canada! My first trip was in 1999 and the second was 2003. If I could afford it, I'd go every year!!!
Salt Spring is the largest of the Southern Gulf Islands. If you've ever cruised to Alaska you probably have gone right by it!!! The Island has over 40 artisans who have shops at their studios......if a sign of a sheep is at the road, the shop is open of business; lots of places offer spa treatments; if you have a lodging with a kitchen, fresh fish every day at the Harbor; lots of places for picnics; and the most spectacular sunsets at Vesuvius Harbor you'll ever see. I hope you enjoy the pics and I hope you decide to visit Salt Spring. ENJOY THE ALBUM!

Hi Tille, Thank you for your comments on my blog. We actually Chose my sons name out of the bible. Its spelt Javan and pronounced Jay-ven or Jay-van. We preffered to spelt it with aa so it would be pronounced Jar-varn. His middle name Te-koa is a bible name to. We hadnt heard of anyone with similiar and since we like unusual names it was the perfect fit. I hope you continue to enjoy looking at my blog and meeting my little family. Chic
That's really interesting! :) Yes, I know it's a biblical name...Noah's grandson...who populated the gentile line. But, I've never heard of the middled name. It's nice!
Good to meet you, Chic! Looking forward to getting blog-acquainted. Tillie
