The amazingly beautiful Squamish River. 

Oh Canada - so green!! 

The river was freezing and it was cold out, which is why I'm in Bryan's jacket... and barefoot. 

Bryan trying to put on his drytop. 

Bryan and I went up to kayak on the Cheakamus River on his day off. 

The Chief at Squamish. This picture doesn't do it justice - it's HUGE. Think Yosemite/El Capitan style, only Canadian and plunging into the ocean at the bottom. 

Canada

So I went up to visit Camp in B.C. Canada and got to work some and play some. This is Shannon Falls south of Squamish in B.C. It's huge and gorgeous and really wet. 

Grandpa and I decided to wear our lets run off to the beach for summer break clothes
