Well today we did Oliphant Lake and we really did it. Ha. We had good weather and a great walk, just a little longer then we expected. We spent some time looking for a trail around the north end that we did'nt find and had to back track, anyway it was interesting all the logging going on. We did 10k and a 1/2 hour late.
Next week Dave will look after the walk as I'll be away, Tks

Our last walk was around Spectacle Lake which is named after the two small islands
in the lake which resemble eye glasses.We walked through the mobile home park and
by the fire hall. Nearby was a metal building used for practise in firefighting in all types
of buildings to show the intensity of the heat.The vehicles are for practise in using the
jaws of life to remove accident victims.........See pictures below. The Malahat fire
department will be participating in an Island competition for firefighters soon.
Monday the 19th. We will be leaving the Legion at 10a.m. for Burnt Bridge.      V.M.

Yesterday,the 5th, we had a good walk and interesting one too. First we went down and surveyed the storm damage at the marina, and there was lots. Then we went on to the little park up the road and seen lots of sea lions and Merganser ducks and in the little beach with milky water from herring spawning, and eagle's diving for the herring. On top of that, we then walked up the big hill to the Frayne Centre and on down Tim Hortons for coffee. There was 8 of us. Next week we are off to walk around Matheson Lake with lunch at My-Chosen Cafe. We leave the Legion at 8:30 and will be back by 2pm tks c u there
