"Blue Skies Do I See, Nothing but Blue Skies Do I See...."

 Like much of the North American continent it has been a cool spring.  Here we have been hard pressed to get into double digits on the thermometer and grey skies, rain and wind have been the norm.
 Today was "Move For Health Day" in British Columbia and it seems the weatherman was on our side with beautiful blue skies, big fluffy clouds and warm temperatures for our community hike! 
 On our way back up the coast we stopped for Chai and to see if we could spot the gray whales that come to visit every spring.
For other lovely reflections and beautiful scenes from around the world why not join us at

Nice that weather cooperated. I could sit on that bench and contemplate the world for a long time.

I'll have that song going through my head all day today, heh!!

Carolyn, I will be forever impressed with your photographic ability. I come here and pretend to sit on that bench, just to watch those eternal waves. Just to think. Lovely.

A great Mother's Day gift, thank you!

Looks like a great day to get out for a healthy walk.

That looks like a wonderful place for both exercising and whale watching!

Vast sky and scenery. Soothing view is the food of soul. Thank you for taking me to your world.
Have a nice day.

I bet it smells ever so fresh around there. I envy you the unpolluted air and views. And then you even manage to find a sophisticated bench in all that gorgeous land/seascape.

These are wonderful shots, Carolyn! I'm in Surrey, B.C. and getting impatient for our real spring to start. Today is definitely getting there...LOL!

Have a lovely weekend,
