In Vancouver
I am writing from a most beautiful place. I am sitting by a picture window, drinking English breakfast tea and eating a sticky bun, looking out over a long empty beach.... with the waves of the Pacific ocean rolling onto the shore.
There are forested mountains jutting out into the ocean, placing me in the center of a cove. A rocky island not too far offshore is home to a white lighthouse with a red roof. It is an overcast day, and for some reason it makes being in this overstuffed chair all the more cozy.
Two cheery grey-haired women drink tea at a small round table nearby. They speak in British accents of a bloke they know who is wonderful, really....but never one to blow his own trumpet now, is he? ...
I love this place. Tofino, Vancouver Island...it is just a beautiful, peaceful place. There are forests here filled with trees that are straight from a storybook. Soft, mossy trails through green woods...the whole place smells like sweet pine.
It is very, very inspiring...
I'll try to write again soon...

Sounds like Elkton on a bad day . . .

Wow, how euphoric...Make sure you don't let Jase ring any bells around those two british ladies--they might just think the enemy has invaded!

Nice description "D". Wish I were there! Soak up the beautiful settings for me too. I'll soak in the chaos of Funland for ya!
