Everything is wet

Well, at least we tried. We knew that September was going to be busy, so a long weekend was very tempting for an extended camping trip. Not so. It rained the entire 24 hours when we were out, so we came back early. We're not really set up for rain. The tent will survive a downpour, but we don't have enough tarp or rope to put up a dry area around the table where we could sit and read without getting drenched. So when it ends up raining almost the entire time you're out (OK, we were able to start a small campfire and roast some hotdogs), it's not really fun.

Our trip took us to Birkenhead Provincial Park, about 90km North of Whistler. This could be a good spot to take a couple of kayaks for a weekend. Tucker tried his luck at finishing, thinking this was definitely fish-friendly weather, but no bites.

So now, everything is out drying on my balconies, the tent, the fly, the air mattress, the chairs... The weather in Vancouver is cool and somewhat sunny. Maybe if it's still nice tomorrow, I'll take out my bike for a ride on the seawall.
