Road Bike Ride – Central Saanich – Victoria, BC – Groundhog Shadows

Road Bike Ride – Central Saanich – Victoria, BC – Groundhog Shadows

March 6, 2010:

It’s the first weekend in March, 2010 and I believe numerous groundhogs (people actually) came out of their holes and saw their shadows for the first time today. Apparently many of the groundhogs felt it was wise and perhaps safer to enjoy their shadows in [...]

Wednesday Hike – Colquitz River / Cuthbert Holmes Park – Victoria, BC

Wednesday Hike – Colquitz River / Cuthbert Holmes Park – Victoria, BC

March 3, 2010:

Another Wednesday, another hike. I guess that makes it sound more chore-like than I intended. It’s no chore, it’s fun, it’s dark, it’s sometimes muddy, it’s all good. Since my first hike along the Colquitz River a couple months ago, I’ve been thinking that I [...]

Ross Bay Cemetery Tour – Victoria, BC – Black History Month

Ross Bay Cemetery Tour – Victoria, BC – Black History Month

February 28, 2010:

Ermmm, hangin out with the ladies at the cemetery is good? Defying all logic for a Canadian, I chose to turn off the gold medal Canada – U.S. mens hockey game part way through to go on a Black History Month cemetery tour with Michelle [...]

Wednesday Hike – Willows Beach / Cattle Point / Uplands Park – Fish Feast

Wednesday Hike – Willows Beach / Cattle Point / Uplands Park – Fish Feast

February 24, 2010:

Not surprisingly there were fewer bodies out on the Wednesday night hike this week. The cause… Olympics. I suppose I could have been busy attending the Vancouver Olympics this week and last, but alas I made the choice to observe from afar. For me, as [...]

Road Bike Ride – Saanich Peninsula / Langford – Victoria, BC

Road Bike Ride – Saanich Peninsula / Langford – Victoria, BC

February 20, 2010:

What an awesome day for 100km of rolling around on a bike. Sunny and warm after a bit of a cool morning. After some night road rides earlier in the week on my somewhat beastly winter bike, it felt great to be out in the [...]

Wednesday Hike – Thetis Lake – Victoria, BC

Wednesday Hike – Thetis Lake – Victoria, BC

February 17, 2010:

I’ve been lost… lost in Olympic TV watching purgatory. I can hardly believe I found the strength to get out for the Wednesday night hike. Tonight the destination was Thetis Lake. I guess I better set the record straight since my lack of blog activity [...]

Wednesday Hike – Gonzales Bay and McNeill Bay – Victoria, BC

Wednesday Hike – Gonzales Bay and McNeill Bay – Victoria, BC

February 10, 2010:

Where will we wander Wednesday? Wow, that’s a whole sentence with words starting with the letter W. If this were Sesame Street there would be a song to go along with this wonder of a sentence. Every Monday or Tuesday, this w-loaded question bounces around [...]

Hike – Tod Inlet / Gowlland Tod – Victoria, BC – New To Me

Hike – Tod Inlet / Gowlland Tod – Victoria, BC – New To Me

February 6, 2010:

Today Michelle and I checked out a new-to-us, albeit short, hike on the north side of the Tod Inlet on the Saanich Peninsula. The route runs very close to the property of the famed Butchart Gardens (a place I have never been, but have heard [...]

Wednesday Hike – Royal Roads University – Victoria, BC

Wednesday Hike – Royal Roads University – Victoria, BC

February 3, 2010:

Hump day to some, hike day to others. Wednesday night hikes have become a part of my weekly schedule and I’ll be honest, I look forward to them every week. It’s an opportunity to go exploring, take a mental break from the work week, and [...]

Snowboard and Snowshoe – Mt. Washington, BC – Winter Isn’t Over Yet

Snowboard and Snowshoe – Mt. Washington, BC – Winter Isn’t Over Yet

February 1, 2010:

It’s been a damn long time since I’ve done anything on the snow. Ok, it hasn’t been been forever, but two years is a long time to me. Add to that some pretty sporadic snow excursions going back to about 2003 due to school, and [...]
