We are a Canadian couple living in beautiful British Columbia.
As you will discover from our home page,
we have many different interests. We really enjoy exploring our province, whether it be boating on a glacier fed lake, dirtbiking or hiking up a snow-capped mountain.
Outdoor adventure takes up almost all of our spare time in the summer months, but in the winter we find ourselves indoors more often, mostly due to the large amount of rainfall we receive.
As a matter of fact, the non stop raining is almost directly responsible for the creation of this home page!
Besides computing, we spend the rest of our winter's singing and playing music with fellow musicians and
friends, going on long drives, trying out new restaurants, researching and planning future summer trips & just staying home by a nice fire.
