over the hills and through the woods...


i'm not sure why but, i often think and view - at least in my mind - deep cove in the same way i view and think of gibsons. a watery, tourist area that is home to many a dope smokin' hippy...or at least earthy folks...it really is a beautiful area of the lower mainland to be sure..i spent some time out there this weekend and all in all had a good time...sure, the sushi's not that good - not terrible - just not that good, the kids roaming around are all high on something but, it's good. sara's house sitting out there for the next ten days or so and she invited me to come hang out. so i did. this morning we hiked - yes, i hiked - up the baden-powell trail to quarry rock...it's about two kms through the woods, up and down and up and down, to a rock face - that climbers also assent from the front side i believe - called quarry rock. i said that already right?...whatever. it's a great view from up there and even though i am fat and old and outta shape, it was a good walk and got the old heart pumpin'...no jammer but if i was gonna have one it seems like a decent place to have one.
yesterday, the garbs, tobe and i delivered a wall unit propellor had made for photographer and all-round good guy, mark mushet...i believe it was actually made to measure for his lady friend gudrun, but i could be mistaken. and it was and is one heavy piece of furniture...the world's greatest teamster driver, paul, lent me/us one of his camera cars which made the moving all that much easier - thanks paul...and i have to say, it went flawlessly...not a dent, not a angry curse word, nothin'. pretty good...another good deed gone unpunished.
as for the rest of the week that went unreported...well...there's not a lot to report...the rains came and helped out the lawns a little, got some cuts done, worked all week making movie magic, a little of this and a little of that...oh..the fawnz called me the other day and let me know that the west memphis 3 may be getting another trial - that one of the original witness' has recanted her story...so if you're at all interested, maybe you saw the documentary on the event originally, check it this link out.
ok..i'm off to get a new belt, buy some groceries, vacuum my place and watch some nurse jackie...

have fun.

g xo

sara'a a little bit hippy...ok, maybe just a little bit earthy...

but not that earthy.

nice view from there..

my knees were not loving the decent...ever since i smashed my knee at joel's it's been getting worse...

nice camera car man...

and a nice fit...

the garbs gives his approval before the load.

thanks!
