Tofino, West Coast of Vancouver Island

j

I'm sitting in a quaint little Tofino coffee shop listening to Van Morrison on local radio (what a great station!Al the old classics). After a rainy morning, we now have sunshine and as I sit here pondering life, I realize it truly is the simple pleasures in life that bring the most satisfaction: a latte made with love by a hippie singing along with the music (obviously loving his job and life in general), eating the best piece of banana bread with huge chunks of chocolate chips, looking out the open door to the fuchsia rhododendron, feeling the cool breeze meet the warmth of the central heating and feeling so grateful for everything!   The last 2 days have been spent hiking in the beachside forests amongst huge fir trees, something I could never get enough of! Hope you enjoy the photos.....
