My Kind of Real Estate - Part 2


The character homes 
in the James Bay area of Victoria
are
FABULOUS


You don't want your home
confused for your neighbours


Homes with personality 


Outstanding

My kind of real estate





I love the float homes on the wharf.
Individuality is the order of the day.
Bold and beautiful
fun and funky
Totally cool.

Heading to Fisherman's Warf




Hoping the weather remains nice today.
Planning on heading to the warf
to see the float home
and the harbour seals.
Very civilized and very calm.
Of course,
 there will also be 
tea.

Nanaimo Bars in Nanaimo


These bad boys are pretty rich.
Seriously rich in fact.
I may need to have a nap after eating just one.
Being in Nanaimo, B.C. (birthplace of this treat) I feel it would be rude 
not to sample at least one while I am there.
The city of Nanaimo has a link to 
the Nanaimo Bar Trail, a map and directory
of the location of all the variations
of this treat in the harbour city.
I printed my copy yesterday so I may plan 
my exploration of the Old City Quarter.

BC adventures






I'm heading back to BC for two weeks.
Sadly, my husband is unable to travel with
me so I am travelling alone conducting
recognisance for our big move in a years time.
After researching the region and the communities
we are thinking about Naniamo and Gabriola Island.
After all the reading and research and I so exciting about actually
stepping off of the ferry and seeing all the spots that 
I have read so much about.

Check here often, and I am taking my Mac with with so there
will be many updates on my adventure.

How My Garden Grows

I just needed to share.
I wait all winter for new colour in 
my garden.
I don't even mind that a baby bunny
is eating much of my tender shoots, 
and the chipmunk
is digging up tulips bulbs.

These things to shall pass.
