The goose whisperer shouts loudly.

Surfside RV Resort, Parksville BC (2 stars)

Lee finished off the fireplace work today, as well as some other small jobs. It felt good to work outside. Strangely though, he cannot recall doing this much work outside in Edmonton. It always seemed that +8 to +10c was inside work time. Today, while getting a propane tank re-filled, Lee saw several people wearing shorts (no sunshine he adds) and the PetroCan station was fixing vehicles outside.

In the afternoon, the geese were making quite a racket in the estuary. At one point, our neighbour Ron came out and shouted 'Hey you guys, shut up'. And the estuary went quiet. He must be a goose whisperer, Lee thinks.

Lez is still at the computer. Meanwhile, Lee is going in and out as he is putting on the finishing touches to frame the new fireplace - which is heating us nicely. It is still foggy and rainy and cool out there.

A lot of time catching up on the photo edits - cropping, choosing, naming.
