Sincerest apologies to the residents of Youbou, who've had to put up with people like me stopping in the middle of their usually quiet road to gawk at the wildlife lately.

But. I drove that way a few times last week and saw Roosevelt elk on every drive. Just look at this guy:

Gorgeous. Incredibly rare. Hanging out on a lawn, and giving zero fucks.

He's one of the first elk I've ever seen on Vancouver Island, and he's straight up posing on the side of the road.

"Women Back Men In Logging Dispute," Vancouver Sun. October 12, 1943. Page 6. --- Special to The Vancouver Sun ΝΑΝΑΙΜΟ, Oct. 12. - District Council No. 1, Women's Auxiliary of International Woodworkers of America, at a meeting here on Sunday with representatives from New Westminster, Ladysmith, Alberni, Victoria, Lake Cowichan, Camp No. 6, Youbou, and Courtenay passed a resolution to support the IWA morally and financially in its efforts for collective bargaining and union agreements.

June 26/27/28, 2020: Lomas Lake (again)

Y’already know what it is, Lomas Lake returns. I have blogged many, many, many times about one of my favourite spots on Vancouver Island, and I’ll do it again right now. Located just outside of Youbou, Lomas Lake is a few hours via logging roads and then trails from Cottonwood Creek x North Shore Road. It’s a moderate to easy hike, with no significant challenges other than a few steep sections which are well worth the tranquility of the lake and valley.

This time around in late June of 2020, I was once again joined by my girlfriend, Danielle, as well as our friend Kyla. It was Kyla’s first time to Lomas Lake, and we were happy to show someone the special place. If you remember, last time we hiked up to the lake we brought along another who’d never been, our friend Sam.

While the last couple times we’d hiked up to Lomas the weather had cooperated nicely, this time, was different. Throughout the weekend we were met with a decent amount of rain, as well as a good amount of fog. Although we did have sunny breaks, we remained somewhat soggy the entirety of the trip. Due to the fog and a bit more snowpack than anticipated, we weren’t able to summit either Landale or El Capitan, but did at least make it up to the saddle on Saturday. The rest of the time was spent around the fire (where I put a hole in the tongue of my hiking boot), playing cards in the tent, and washing some lures in the lake with no luck.

Although the weather wasn’t as good as it could have been, and I stupidly burnt a hole in my boot, we still had a great time in the hills, forgetting for a moment we were still in the midst of a global pandemic.

Play Fair, Pay Fair?

On Saturday (15 October, 2022) it's time to vote in the local elections (BC, Canada). If you live in the Cowichan Valley, you will also be asked to vote on a referendum about the cost of recreational facilities that, potentially, will change your annual property taxes.

To get a good sense of how this will impact property taxes *across* the Valley, you need to do a good bit of digging. We found it interesting to look at how much we will all pay annually (per $100K of assessed property value) if the referendum is accepted, broken down by area:

City of Duncan $49.85

North Cowichan $50.58

Ladysmith $48.05

Lake Cowichan $67.91

Area A (Mill Bay/Malaht) $50.62

Area B (Shawnigan Lake) $60.09

Area C (Cobble Hill) $50.40

Area D (Cowichan Bay) $62.40

Area E (Cowichan Station) $53.98

Area F (Cowichan Lake South) $21.12

Area G (Gulf Islands) $15.33

Area H (North Oyster) $16.50

Area I (Youbou) $18.83

A spread of $15.33 on the low end ... to $67.91 on the high end. More details are available via the above link. Fair? Unfair?

Fic titles: Memoria. Magic and Miracles. Endless Deadend

oh man. endless deadend is definitely a fic about resetting the timeline a bunch of fucking times so like... perhaps pmmm au youbou. i also once read a lyon/knoll fic where knoll got hold of a time travel tome and tried again and again to save lyon so perhaps also something like that.... 

memoria.... looking back on something. a character introspective? this could work for any character but i would probably write it for youzen because i gay

magic and miracles..... short little lyon/knoll where they are happy and alive and in love. thank you
