Happy Easter! We got to spend the weekend with some of my very favourite people, and I hope you did too.

Perfect date day wandering around a sleepy, sunny Vancouver. Thanks to @virtuous_pie and @33acresbrewing for the mid-afternoon pre-party feast.

Day 18: Rich is working so hard on this project and I’m mostly passing tools, but I do know how to strip a mast, label everything, and paint a boat bottom so we did those things together.
.
For the most part I’m in charge of snacks, keeping track of @c12beer‘s tasting room hours en route home, and the Captain’s in charge of power tools and epoxy. She’s looking pretty sleek with her freshly polished hull and painted bottom.

Our mast is in our driveway for work, the boat is in the boatyard and retirement plans are in the air.

‪Two summers ago we rode our bikes to #NotreDame, from London via Normandy and the Loire. So glad we climbed to the roof and in my two trips to Paris so far have been able to see its beauty. ‬

Life was good today.

Colour brings me so much joy. This time of year, it’s everywhere and even though these aren’t fragrant, stop and “smell” them anyway. It’s ok to slow down. It’s ok not to be busy.

I work for money, not exposure. People die of exposure. My camera wasn't cheap. Write your own shit.
