Second beach pool, Stanley Park

Finally got my butt down to the second beach pool in Stanley Park on Saturday, the thing closes labour day weekend.  I’ve been meaning to get down there all summer but stuff keeps getting in the way.  I got there right at opening so I could have the pool to myself.   Opens at 10am and closes just before dark , 50 meter laps with three pretty wide lanes.  Make sure you take your tinted googs.

Breast Cancer walk was the same morning.  Took some quick shots before I jumped in the pool.

Labour Tuesday

I was out in West Vancouver putting in the basement slab in another million dollar house Tuesday afternoon.  We were way up, about a hundred feet below the snow line.  This house has a view of pretty much the whole lower mainland.  From Surrey Central to Canada Place, SFU to UBC, Tsawwassen to Horse shoe Bay, and Grouse to Mountain Baker.  Here are some shots from the front of the house.
