Caving shots and Cave Hunting shots!

Well I thought I would post some shots from other caving trips and cave hunting trips.

Cave Hunting:




Caving:


Richard doing a 60 meter free repel into a cave on Vancouver Island. While this photo was not taken by me, it is one of my favorite shots of caving that we have.






I saved the best and the creepiest for last, sometimes you find interesting things in caves.....

Fun in the forest

We spent Sunday wandering around the forest looking for caves. As odd as it sounds it is quite fun. We are members of a caving club and we try and go out now and then looking for new ones. Unfortunately we didn't find anything too spectacular, mostly just holes that didn't go to far, or they needed some major digging on to see if they went anywhere, which we may come back to another day.
Our friend Adam taking pictures of things.

My husband Richard checking out a hole.. it was a little tight.

Our hole after clearing away loose rocks, we named this the head crusher cave for the sketchy loose rocks hanging above your head.

Trying out some different settings on my camera in this little valley. This is normal.

A waterfall we found with Adam, it was nice.

Flame

Since I had gotten a litle behind these last few days in my post, I thought I would also post this shot of a candle I took yesterday.


Fun with my Wii

We have had tons of fun playing our Nintendo Wii, here are a few shots of Richard playing some of the bowling game in Wii Sports. Now its time to buy a much bigger, fancier tv!

Winter is coming!

I love winter, I love the snow, the crispness in the air and the cozy feeling you get at home when it is so chilly outside but so toasty in your home. Here are a few shots from last year to get you in the mood to love winter like I do. :)

Winter

Well after a quick trip up to Whistler yesterday to pick up Richard's brand new custom snowboard, and get our pictures taken for our passes, I am ready for the season to begin. While there we were greeted with the white stuff falling hard in the village.

Cats in Hats..

Over the last little while we have put our cats in a few outfits for Halloween and they had a little party for their birthday (which mostly consisted of them getting some cat treats and catnip) but they wore hats so it was a party. Call me crazy but it was fun and cute and they are both tolerant of us dressing them up so it makes it even more fun!

The Yeti in his Ladybug hat.

The Yeti looks partied out.


This is some random dog we saw riding on the back of a motorcycle. He really looked like he enjoyed riding there and posing for photos. Those really are doggles too!

Have you ever went on vacation in one locations, but ended up on the other side of the country?


I love Disneyworld, so when we did not get on our flight to Maui, we quickly called the Westjet standby hotline to figure out where we could go and Orlando was a pretty good bet for getting there and home without missing our flights. So off we went, saying good bye to our travel companions who did make the Maui flight.

Here are some shots from our quick trip to the Magical Kingdom. On a side note, those "Just Married" pins do have perks at Disney. We thought hey we haven't been married a year yet, we still qualify for the "honeymoon perks"!









Religious skywriting???? Very strange indeed!

We taxied right by the new Airbus A380 in Montreal, that is one big plane!
