Between yesterday and today, it seems as if memories of the rain are starting to disperse as those in Campbell River take advantage of the sun to get outside. From morning to night, a constant flow of people can be seen out walking their dogs along the trails and sea walk, working in their gardens, or even just hanging out on the deck to relax and tan.
However, one of my favorite parts about the nice weather has got to be the smell of barbeque as I head home every evening. That delicious smell and the memories it brings up could turn even the most sour of moods around and images of family gatherings, bonfires, or maybe even catching your hair on fire (it's happened!) come back to you.
Even McIvor lake was benefitting from the sun yesterday as people piled into the area to relax on the beach and take a dip in the cool water. Looks like it might be the same today too!
When looking at extracurricular activities to take part in, here's a couple suggestions for this beautiful day:
Fishing has been fantastic these last couple weeks, with stories of huge chinook and halibut coming in almost every day. The hot spots still seems to be located on The Hump, The Lighthouse, and Shelter Point. Wildlife viewing has also been fantastic with what seems like unlimited amounts of dolphins (an estimated 1,000 at least!) and black bears hanging around.
If you're looking to relax and enjoy, head on down to one of Campbell River or Quadra's patio resteraunts to sit in the sun and have a cool glass of wine...or even head down to a couple of the local wineries!
Either way, enjoy the weather and have a fantastic day!
