Donna's Week 17 - Better late than never for my friend Diane Van Dooran

Week 17

One of this week's topics reminded me that my friend Diane asked me to send her pictures of Elk Falls in Campbell River BC.  Diane and Blake and I had a great lunch in Victoria and I told her we were off to Courtenay, Comox and Campbell River.  Diane had lived in Courtenay and told me to send her pictures of the new swing bridge at Elk Fall's.  Well that was almost an entire year ago, so sorry my friend.  You have probably been back to Campbell River and seen it for yourself, but if not, the waterfall pictures below are for you, my friend.

Raindrops

I think these raindrops look like little jewels on the branch.

One of the first trips Rob and I did together was to Smith River in northern California.  We flew to Portland and drove down the Oregon coast.  Just over the border into California is Smith River.  We stayed at this little hotel right at the mouth of the smith river and the ocean.  Rob went to work and I walked around taking pictures of birds.  It was then that I saw two of the most playful and amazing adult river otters, in the wild.  they were fishing and eating and swimming.  It was really special and since then otters and especially river otters are my most favourite animal!!
