Well, yesterday we had a warm but enjoyable stroll up to Rat Lake and back. Got a few shots which are below. Started below the water tower at the end of Fern Ridge Rd. Finished off with coffee at the Shawnigan Coffee House. -- DeNNis.

The usual Yellow Brick Road. The green & white is ATV-Dirt Bike trails. |

Had to add this photo from a few weeks ago. The water lilies are all yellow. This time, a lot of them are white. Is this normal? |

We did see some yellow ones, and from the other side of the lake more yellow ones were evident. |

Gathered on the bridge over Handysen Creek. Barely a trickle of water to be seen. |

Across from the water tower on the way back. This guy was way up, limbing the tree with a chainsaw before felling it. Taken with about 15X zoom. |
