Dinner on the beach

Every year we celebrate Thanksgiving with our friends in Hope Bay. It is a little community we are closely connected to. The dinner is a gathering of approximately 40 people, we all contribute and it really is like a big family. Well, this year the weather was so outstanding we decided to eat on the beach by our great host Kathy and Frank! You'll also note that the turkey (three of them) is cooked on a fire, under a bucket outside. Delicious.......

Thanksgiving

Wow, it is Thanksgiving already. Times are busy and life is so fast. We came back last week from a little trip to Bryce Canyon and Zion Park. The weather was excellent and we walked and climbed throughout the canyons. It was breathtaking. The colours and the texture of the rock are so incredible. It is seems to be a part of the world that is not touched by modern life, and yet, of course it is. The erosion is creating many of the effect in the rocks and human behaviour really does leave something to be desired sometimes. However, it was stunning and, while I am not religious in the traditional sense, I experienced something profoundly spiritual. Take a look....



Have a great Thanksgiving everyone.
