Description
This little scene struck me as something I would like to share. I was waiting for the ferry that crosses Finlayson Arm from Brentwood Bay to Mill Bay in early December. It was cold and clear. The sun was brightly shining and there was a dusting of snow to light things up - something we don't see too often at this time of year. Since I was first in line, I had a great view of a typical west coast shoreline scene - a woodsy cafe surrounded by a variety of sailboats and canoes.
I thought how peaceful and pretty this place is, especially in comparison with all the trouble we have seen in the world in 2016.
I hope that everyone can find a place of such peace to enjoy in the coming year.
Best wishes for 2017 !
