Summer 2014 Adventures

 My co-worker recommended we attend Squamish Logger Days.
On a hot & sunny BC Day long weekend, we watched the professional
lumberjacks compete for prizes.

 The lumberjacks competed in many events.  Look carefully and you'll
see a lumberjack up high on the left pole.
 Second Beach pool is in Stanley Park and right next to English Bay.
Logan & Michael found a great way to cool off during our heat wave.
 Lighthouse Park is located in West Vancouver between Ambleside Beach
and Horseshoe Bay.  There are old growth Cedar & Fir trees (500 years old) with hiking
trails weaving throughout the park.

 We started our family stay-cation by spending a hot afternoon at Granville Island.
There is a free outdoor water park for kids with a water slide.  Logan & Michael
cooled off while I wandered through the market.
 A last minute invitation from a classmate of Logan's had us spend the late afternoon
in Lions Bay (north of Horseshoe Bay).  Max's grandmother lives right on the beach.
She has ocean kayaks, inner tubes and a motor boat.  Logan enjoyed the kayak.
 Logan (red life jacket) and Max (blue life jacket) were very excited to
start tubing.
 Max's dad drove the boat.  Michael spotted and the kids took turns tubing.
After tubing the kids wanted to go in the hot tub.  We parents were
puzzled as the weather was in the high twenties.
Thanks McNeill family for the invite!
