My kind of hike, and the perfume of the Ocean Spray a definite plus for my wife. When she sits in her double swing out back she has the spring scent of a dozen tall lilac bushes behind her. Since you are on Vancouver Island, a place that has been on my bucket list for years, getting to experience this perfume ourselves is a distinct possibility. That is unless climate change has other ideas. Thanks for this trip down a forest path, despite its brevity.
If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
