Many of the rivers on the island are so colourful. Those were great times.

And we wandered, as if in a dream, among the tall forests of Amanita, brought up by the cooler autumn weather. #mushroom #amanita #dream

Where the village meets the sea there is an incredible sense of wide open space, and never more so than when the sun sets behind Vancouver Island. #sunset #landscape #home

The lake so calm that it mirrors the sky almost without flaw. We will head back up to Kwotlenemo in a few days. #reflection #sunset #lake

Magic time in the village. I love where I live. Amanita muscaria seen through a vintage Super Takumar 50mm f1.4 lens. #mushroom #bokeh #supertakumar

And into the mists we rode… A memorable ride in the wilds with @betterwithadventure, as the pandemic shifted into gear. Those wheels were good therapy for what ailed us, men who were too familiar with loss. #motorcycle #moody #mentalhealth

So though I tremble in the darkness In the cold and frozen snow I am grateful for the winter For the winter comes to show That our trouble is never over And our work is never done But with the turning of the season We will always see the sun @noahgundersen - Honest Songs #autumn #nature #glow

It took months to retrain Tanner to hunt Amanita rather than the truffles that his kin had sniffed out for generations. Autumnal bounty for the eyes. #dog #mushroom #autumnal

Living in a dream. Pops of red and white have appeared in the village. I love autumn for this very reason. #mushroom #amanitamuscaria #dream

A rainy day at Cameron Lake. There are legends that tell of an aquatic monster in those waters. #fog #rain #lake

Waiting for 5:05 PM, and I will see most of these, for certain.

Ah, but haven’t I earned every wrinkle and every strand of grey upon my head? I often say that my brothers and I have easily burned up 8.7 of our 9 lives promised to a cat. Blessed, and every day grateful. #portrait #sunset #gratitude

No man is an island. A moss-covered rock provides a home for a bracken fern in the Englishman River, on BC’s Vancouver Island. #water #longexposure #nature

I am now distilling my own moss absinthe, and it has changed me, I say for the positive.
