Today is my father's 83rd birthday and he asked about Gabriola. He lives in Nova Scotia, so hasn't had the chance to see it. So I will be sending him the url so that he can get an idea of what it is like here. Happy Birthday Dad.
One of my favourite places here is Malaspina Galleries, and I am sure that he would love it too. He is a skilled photographer, and in fact when I called him today he was working on Photoshop. I am afraid that I haven't inherited that talent, so am using a photo of that K and M of http://knittingbunny.blogspot.com/ kindly gave me permission to use. This view is towards Sunshine Coast across the Georgia Strait. Thanks M & K.
The Galleries are sandstone, and have always been a popular spot - with the Sneneymexw/Salish people, then the european settlers, and now with tourists and locals. But recently the cave roof collapsed in some spots, so it has been closed. You can still see it from either end, but you can't walk on it.
I will add another post soon to show the scale.
