And The Sun Is Shining!

My city is BEAUTIFUL when it's not raining and since we live on the West Coast and in a rainforest, it rains a lot during the fall, winter and spring.  Some people call it "liquid sunshine", I call it something else especially when it is days upon days upon days of dark skies filled with pouring rain!  So when the sun comes out, our little neck of the earth is stunning beyond words!


After 2 weeks of Spring Break where the weather was somewhat awe inspiring  - in one day, we would see sun, rain, snow, hail, wind, more rain, and some more sun!  It was crazy!  Needless to say, we got very creative in our house with Lego, Play Doh, board games, movies and ran outside in between weather systems!


THEN, Saturday roles around and the skies are blue with puffy white clouds and IT'S WARM!!!!  Oh My God!  It's glorious!  People opened windows, washed cars, and rubbed their eyes in disbelief!  Sunday was just as beautiful!  So I ditched the laundry and cleaning and took the family out to partake in our beautiful mountain lined city!  


Here's our outing in pictures!




One of my favourite sights is to see snow capped mountains while walking in a sweater!




One of the best places to see, eagles, herons, bears etc. is on the Traboulay Trail!

The Pitt River!




Our little piece of Heaven!



Thank you sunshine!
