Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Puddles and Dead falls season is upon us. Two blowdowns on the trail on the way out for my ride today. The bigger one that could not be ridden over due to the height over was already sawed off and removed by the time I got back an hour later! 000
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Foo Fighters were great (I think they can sound great anywhere). Queens of the Stone Age did not sound great. BC Place is not great for their sound (and as a fan, that was a little disappointing) 100
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Went riding up the street and over to behind Burnt Bridge. We have amazing stuff in the back yard. 210
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 18/09/2026It's been a minute (or 35 years) since I've been to Witty's Lagoon. 100
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 17/09/2026We went out on Lake Cowichan today. I was interested to see that the water is a lot clearer than Lake Shawnigan. We launched From Bear Lake park. Not sure why Bear Lake is not just considered part of Lake Cowichan though. As we were getting back to shore we spotted the moon just over the hill. 000
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Dawn and I paddled the tandem, launching from the beach at Bamberton Park, and went south to The Staircase. No idea why The Staircase exists. doesn't seem to be anything else there. Easy paddling out, but a bit more work coming back as the wind had picked up, and the tide was coming at us. 100
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Rode a good chunk of the Malahat south from Sooke Lake Road in Shawnigan. Lots of climbing, but able to do the whole thing without walking. Turned around at the red gate. Ran into a mama bear and cubs, so a bit of a delay waiting for them to shamble off the trail. 000
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Mountain biking on Tzouhalem/Pi'paam, and paddleboarding in Genoa Bay. It was a full day. 111
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Great ride with Nelson and Nonce. Nonce rode my spare Ebike as his bike is still borked, so it was a bit of a faster ride. 000
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Dawn and I paddled out from Crofton Beach Park out and around the Shoal Islands. Super nice day, glassy calm in the estuary. 100
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 04/09/2026It's been a minute (or maybe 23 years) since I walked around Stanley Park. Still people rocking rollerblades I see! 100
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Went to Jack Point (aka Duke Point) for a walk with Dawn and Trina and Ripley 100
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 13/08/2026The first two Rush shows in Toronto were fantastic. A couple pics for you 011
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Got the new boat out for a maiden voyage to shake it down. Started with some self-rescue, which is pretty straightforward, then paddled down around Memory Island. Main beach was full of boats, but the secondary spot was open, so we stopped for a little swim. 110
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Got out before the wind picked up. Lots of geese, herons, kingfishers. At one point I thought I saw an otter, but when I got closer I found it was a log that was spinning oddly in the waves. 100
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 22/07/2026Perfect day for a paddle and some snorkeling Tons of seals (and a few seal pups), and several Kingfishers spotted. Water was glassy when we headed out. 100
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 19/07/2026It's Caturday. Lots of pictures of Hobbes, all from the same multi-hour nap session 100
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Had to look this guy up. Looks like it is a Comma butterfly 000
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 27/06/2026Jazzy likes hanging around with Ripley. I happened to look at the driveway camera and happened to see them hanging out. 010

Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Not sure when the last time I visited Cadboro Bay. Came down for a kayak gear swap, then went for a walk on the beach 110
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 26/05/2026Non-consensual blood donation day on Tzouhalem. Thought I was brushing away a branch over a trail. Turned out it was a blackberry vine. Ouch. A bit of gross weather while I was riding. 110
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 23/05/2026The plan did not include swimming in Mill Bay, but a wave had other ideas for me and my boat. Luckily I had just practiced capsizing and getting back in the boat when we were in the lake just over a week ago. 000
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 16/05/2026Could you go up on the roof and check something for me real quick? 😄 000
Gord Webster 🇨🇦 @thievingjoker.bsky.social · 06/05/2026Caturday. Dawn had a nap with Jazzy while I went for a bike ride 030
