When I started this weblog back in June of this year, I decided that Wetcoast Journals would be an apt title, considering our environment.
However, this has turned out to be one of the driest summers in living memory. Severe water restrictions are in place in Vancouver because the reservoirs have been depleted. Forest and brush fires have forced tens of thousands of people out of their homes in the Interior. The provincial parks service has banned camping in all parks in southernn B.C.
It's at times like these that you appreciate, and long for, the rainy season on our not-so-wet coast.
