Quote of the Day

The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing, and face us with the reality of our powerlessness, that is the friend who cares. ~ Henri J.M. Nouwen

Vancouver Island


Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada: September 2003
KODAK DC3400 Zoom digital camera :: Exposure: 1/700 sec
Aperture: f/8.0 :: Focal Length: 6.3mm

Taken at Pacific Shores Beach Resort in Beautiful British Columbia. I was nearly asleep in my lounge chair when I heard someone remark, "I can't believe I'm bathing in the sea in autumn." Obviously, she was from England. Pacific Northwesteners would have said, "I can't believe I'm swimming in the ocean in the fall." How would you have said it and whereabouts are you from?
