Arrived Alive
Too much to tell and all thumb-tied on son's computer. but we survived the sardinifcation of air travel and have recovered from pretzel toxicity and just now setting off for BC campus (Ann not thrilled that I am thrilled at prospect of visiting the Bot. Gardens!). The plant life here is all of the Miracle Grow variety. Just walking the neighborhood here I am astounded. And befuddled. Who are these strange plants, anyway! More perhaps later!

Enjoy your trip! And let us know what new plants you come across. Are you going to take pics of the Bot Gardens to post to your blog? I hope so!

I just took two plane flights and I really laughed at your mention of "sardinification" and prretzel toxicity. Exactly!
Have a wonderful trip and take some photos of all those odd plants.

The steamy atmosphere and befuddlement at new and strange neighbors? Are you sure you ever got off of the plane?

Fred, are you going to get a chance to meet Chris over at Bowen Island Journal? It's a short ferry ride (itself a delight and not at all sardine-like...)

By all means make it over to Bowen island if you can. It's like the Land of the Cultural Creatives over there. Chris Corrigan is a great host.
