Grasshopper Posted November 28, 2022 Author Share Posted November 28, 2022 To start the week I went for a walk to the shore. A quiet moment to sit and listen to the water hitting the rocks. The tide was high and you could feel winter’s chill in the air. A lovely way to start the day. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny enough my old house got just as cold as it wasn’t insulated well when it was built. When the wood stove went to sleep the place would get chilly. The Coast never used to get this cold or snow this far south. I actually find the van a bit easier to warm up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fell in love with Boya Lake this summer. We were there twice as I went back the second time to lay my Mom’s ashes to rest. I’m sure I will return again. Beautiful canoeing and to visit Mom. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
