Record breaking heat this weekend. Cold and wet start to June (the local weather personalities were calling it “June-uary” — which got real old, real quick) and now blue sky and scorching heat. Welcome to the dry season.
This weekend was busy doing an assortment of things. Saturday was chores and errands in the morning, a quick trip (hah!) to Highview Lookout in Cypress Provincial Park for some photos and cache placement scouting, and then over to the COINANZA geocaching event in the Barnet Marine Park in north Burnaby. Aidan had a good time playing in the sand and watching the trains whiz by as we socialized. If you go through the photos at the event, you’ll see Aidan made it again. :) Grocery shopping after that, and then Aidan and I went by bike back to the grocery store because I forgot to get the one thing we were supposed to get — hamburger buns (for supper). Doh!
And, oh, we also picked up a travel bug at the event:
Today was a bit more of the same. Back to Cypress to drop off a geocache that we’re placing (not published yet, link to come) and then to the Wal*mart in North Van to get The Boy some summer jammies. Back home for a nap that didn’t come and then we beat it down to Spanish Banks for a picnic on the beach. Whew.
What kind of bug is this? Anyone? It was on the beach where we were trying to picnic:
You know, the views in Vancouver never get old.
