Bowen Island is 20 square mile chunk of rock lying two miles off the west coast of Canada. It is home to 3000 people, three mountains, two valleys, four lakes, about 15 beaches, two species of salmon, one village and me and my family.

I always get a little suspicious about summer weather this early in June. We usually have cooler temperatures and rain in June, bring total deflation to the anticipation that a nice May always creates.
But this year, and right now, it is beautiful and we are looking at sunny weather with a high temperature of 30 degress this weekend. Makes me wonder what's in store... I've been sleeping outside again.. With this high pressure system currently parked over us we are experiencing a phenomen of strong inflow winds at night. As the air cools over the glaciers and ice fields at the head of Howe Sound, the pressure drops and the high pressuer air lying off shore rushes in to fill the gap. As a result, we have calm days and really windy nights. |
