**Warning - long post, though most of it is pictures***
DH and I took Tuesday just before noon until Thursday just after noon and went away, just we two. R stayed with my in-laws and they all had so much fun! We stayed at a B&B and enjoyed ourselves. We explored Powell River on Tuesday went kayaking off the Okeover Arm (sorry, no pics of that yet as we used our waterproof camera which has film! No quick viewing!) and took a look around Lund, then had supper at the Laughing Oyster Restaurant on Wednesday, explored the property of our B&B on Thursday and came home. It was so nice just to get away and enjoy each other's company without distraction.
On the ferry - headed to Powell River for our anniversary trip.
Hotham Sound - you can see Freil Falls on the mountainside. DH and I have kayaked up to there a previous summer.
DH watching the sun setting over the water.
We two - excuse the camera shadow, but it was the best picture that we took of both of us this evening.
A totem at a lookout east of Powell River.
Boats at the marina at Lund, BC.
The sign at Lund - this is the very end of the 101 highway - you can see the end of the world from here! :)
Another pic of the boats in the harbour.
The view from our table at the Laughing Oyster Restaurant.
Some person had attached an Ultralite to a Zodiac boat and was flying it around. DH was extremely intrigued! He flew it so high, it disappeared over the mountain and was gone over half an hour. DH was genuinely concerned that something happened, but it appeared just as we were leaving. Good thing or DH would've worried all night about it! :)
My DH of 10 years!
Me - looking extremely tired.

10 years and still laughing together

The B&B we stayed at - Herondell Bed & Breakfast
There was a couple from Cornwall, England that were staying there as well, Greg and Hilary. They were going birdwatching most every day. We had breakfast together both mornings. The pie in the front was an anniversary pie for us!
Alex and Nancy Hollman, our hosts. They were so sweet, they gave us a balloon, and some drinks and a card and the pie for our anniversary. They live on 40 acres and have definitely made it a place that you would want to visit. It was very comfortable and relaxing. We had a room with two double beds and a bathroom that had a large shower with a seat it in and a deep jacuzzi tub. We would most definitely stay there again and if you are ever in Powell River, BC, you should too! :)

My all time favorite is the laughing picture! I would blow that thing up to 11x14 and frame it!
I am thinking of doing that - I love it too!
My favorite picture is the guy in the zodiak flying. I have got to get me some of these:
1 Zodiak inflatable dingy
1 Ultralite
1 roll of duct tape
looks lovely and relaxing!
Awesome photos! So glad you guys were able to get away! Happy 10th!
