I spent the day in a boat on the waters between Vancouver and Bowen Island. At several points during the day I admired the scenery and thought of how lucky I am to live where I live. The mountains are stunning, and every way I looked I saw beauty.

People travel from all over the world to see the place where I choose to live. How lucky am I not just to live here, but to have opportunities to enjoy and share this space with family and friends.
