The Fintry Queen – Dead Again
Unknown to most of the world there is a boat on Okanagan lake that began it’s life as a passenger ferry. Once the bridge was built across the lake in 1958 the boat was decommissioned for the second time. It was actually built in Vancouver as a barge but was subsequently cut in pieces and shipped to Kelowna to be resurrected as the passenger ferry. In 1968 it was rebuilt as a passenger ship and then was converted to a dining boat / floating restaurant. Since that time different companies have tried to make a business out of it but it has failed once again. Long live the Fintry Queen!
Akaka Falls – Hawaii
If you ever make it to the Big Island of Hawaii make sure you visit Akaka Falls. We spent a day and drove around the island when we were staying in Kona and we were passing the turnoff to Akaka Falls right as the sun was starting to set. It had been a long day so we nearly passed on the falls but made a last minute decision to stop. It was definitely worth it. It is a very beautiful falls that is over 400 feet tall. Wow.
Follow the Leader
In 2006 my family and I went to Hawaii. We stayed a couple of days at Waikiki beach and this was the scene the first night we were there. It seems a bit strange that all of the boats seem to be in a line right along the horizon but it makes for an interesting photograph.
King of the Castle
This is a shot of my favorite goat Otis. He likes to feel important so he climbs to the top of this mountain (rock) to show off.
Cool Butts
I thought this was a funny sight – just a guys hand with a hose cooling off these two polo ponies after they were done with their match.
If you didn’t know this already each polo player has a set of 4 horses to be used in a match which consists of 4 chukkas or quarters. The horses get tired by the end of their chukka so they need to get swapped out for a replacement. It’s definitely not an economical sport.
