I have not mentioned it before, but we relocated from White Rock to Courtenay on Vancouver Island, and we have never been so happy about such a big decision. Of the many things we experience living here, one of them has been the various marine animal sightings and seeing these marine animals just off the…

I have been fairly lucky lately in winning cool products and the most recent one was a Whale Watching trip for 2 with White Rock Sea Tours. When I received a notification from being tagged as the winner in their contest, I was super excited. My wife and I have been on a Whale Watching…

Where in the Vancouver Area to U-Cut Christmas Trees 2017
