Laura dragged me out of bed this morning for a quick paddle. Truth be told, by 6am our bedroom gets so bright, sleep isn’t possible. But I’ve been really enjoying following the natural rhythm and waking up with the sun.
I know I sound like a broken record but it’s so ridiculous that we just had to drive 1min down our road so we could go for a paddle down the French slough! We first tried to paddle off the Kootney River but a beaver put a stop to that nonsense and build a massive damn under the bridge, so we had to drive around and start on the other side.
Next time we gotta bring the kids along and make a picnic out of it. We didn’t get far because you know, parenting and all. Can’t just run away and paddle for hours.

I stand corrected, spring snowboarding does not suck! Its all about timing! You go out too early ( like I did last time ), everything is rock hard ice, you go too late ( towards the end of my ride today ) the snow gets heavy, wet and is trying to swallow you up. I think I managed to hit the sweet spot today and it was an epic morning!

Took Eddie for his morning walk because we are in the middle of a heatwave. Brought the mace along as well. On my way down walked right into a black bear, not even 20 feet away from me and Eddie right on the trail. Quickly recalled Eddie as the bear lunged at a tree in fright but decided against climbing it up and started sizing us up. Started hollering and swinging my mace and smashing it into the ground and he ran off. Wo needs a bear bell when you have a bear mace.

Laura saw the footage I took of the waterhole yesterday and wanted us to take her there! Yesterday we arrived a bit too late and it was quite cold despite the heat. It’s such a deep canyon the sun only reaches this pool for a few hours around noon. So today we hit the pool at the perfect time, so the glacier water didn’t bother us with the 38°C.
Unfortunately with my luck as I was repelling down the canyon I broke a tree which in turn disturbed a wasp nest and they went at me. I didn’t even notice until I started hearing buzzing and then what felt like multiple stabs to my back. I dropped the beach bag and quickly ran down the ravine. The total count once we got to the bottom was: 4 stings on my back, 3 on the back of my knee and one or two on my left hand.
But the glacier water gave me instant relief and it was all good after that. There was another family there and we all had a blast cooling off in this pool just 10min away from home.

So my SIL is visiting us currently and she’s very pregnant. So family adventures were kind of out of the question. But we still wanted her to have the full BC experience. As luck has it we have this insane Mountain outside our living room window that you can drive to the very top. I don’t think the baby appreciated the bumpy road but watching a sunset at 2200m elevation made up for it.

This model of the Reaper, the US military's current workhorse attack drone platform, was photographed at the Farmers' Market in Madison. These robot aerial warriors, lethal as they are, suffer from a major problem in the eyes of military planners: They are remotely controlled by distant armchair pilots. The chain of communication and authorization procedures slows response time. In addition, a sophisticated enemy could easily jam radio communication.
That's why there's a big push to develop fully autonomous drones -- that is, drones that don't need a remote pilot, operate on their own, and make their own kill decisions after being programmed with mission parameters. The Navy has been testing a pilotless drone that can land on an aircraft carrier, something that's challenging even for a human pilot. This autonomous drone isn't carrying weapons (yet), but that's bound to change. Soon autonomous drones will be able to kill without any real-time human direction.
Some see this as a more targeted and effective form of warfare. Others see it as the ultimate human rights nightmare -- an immoral kind of remote killing without any direct human intervention. What do you think?
Laura has been waiting for some trees and shrubs to be ready for pickup at a nursery in Salmo. So after what seemed like weeks of rain there was finally a sunny day and I decided to take my bike for a little rip out in Nelson after picking up Laura’s order. Decided to ride something new and went to check out Paper Bag. They weren’t kidding about it being more of a XC trail for the first 50% but when I came across that insane slab I posted yesterday it made it all worth all those punchy climbs. Overall a fun trail but definitely a XC trail for the first half, after that all downhill.

It was high time for a family adventure again. We’ve had these “warm” springs on our to do list since we moved here. The source of the hot spring is high above theses pools so the temperature is “only” 37 °C degrees. There used to be pools higher up the mountain but they have all been buried by rock slides. We had these beautiful pools in the middle of the wilderness all to ourself. That’s one way to spend your Monday.

The video seriously doesn’t make this massive slab any justice whatsoever!!! Super exposed, sketchy and tight as hell halfway. You are one pedal strike away from the Hospital 😁

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be for my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
my head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
by William Ernest Henley
