You can see how seating changes are done, while we are out on the waters. Everyone except the 2 people transferring, row by row, has to brace the dragonboat while these seat changes happen.
Mom & I went for a lovely morning #NatureWalk at #ElkLake after my denturist appointment.
We only saw 2 other people on the trail. We had our morning tea, at the lake.
2nd blooming of our front garden #rhododendron bush tree. It has its first blooms in February & the colour is light pink. It changes to this deep #red colour, on 2nd bloom times 🥰
First delivery from my day job at big wheel burger #yyj completed. Went all the way downtown too for the first time. Fun, fun, busy chaos. Yay! #UberDelivery!
emerson the elephant seal, a local celebrity here in #VictoriaBC#yyj - this photo was taken at the beginning of his molt, a month ago. Then they trucked him away to a distant island ...
... and within two weeks, he had swum all the way back to Victoria.
I had a great Sunday with my friend, Sarah! She came over earlier. We did mini home spa treatments. I did full skincare spoils for her because she doesn't treat herself to spa facial treatments & deserves some pampering. Afterwards, we went to the outdoors expo, at Juan de Fuca Rec.
Just got back home & am relaxing as my #Vietnamese#BòKho (beef stew) finishes simmering. I put it on slow cook before going to expo.
We got their 3 packs for $20 expo deal. 2 black pepper & 1 original. To share. Beef jerky is one of my fave snacks. I bring with me on many outdoor adventures.
Our full moon sweat lodge ceremony rounds lasted until 1:30AM. Just got home. Crashing in few minutes. I have para-dragonboating practice in the morning.
Some places where crabapple blossoms naturally fell & landed
Pot with banana peel & yard cuttings, I use to make enriched water to fertilize plants, naturally. Banana peels are one of my super boosters - been using them for years to create natural plants boosters.
#FairwayGorgePaddlingClub is located in the curved building you see, in this looking up from ground photo. I was waiting for Mom to bring car from parking lot. I loved how beautiful the skies looked & took 2 photos, while I was waiting. One is of the skies & buildings. Another of my pants & sneakers.
Selkirk Trestle, walking & cycling bridge - spans from Banfield Park to Selkirk waterway paths on other side of waterway.
