Some fun on the beach. #beach #vancouverisland #bodercolliesofinstagram ‘‘Twas a nice afternoon for a coffee and a chill. Let the feasting begin. Christmas time. This is so accurate. A beautiful day, once again, on the west coast. Although we really could do with some rain. #fall #vancouverisland #westcoastlife This view never gets old. #hyggehome … just to show my dinner was not just a beer @longwoodbrewpub . Sooo good. Even roast potatoes and not mash. 😉 Dinner time @longwoodbrewpub How can you resist this face #bordercolliesofinstagram #bordercollie Beautiful walk in the woods today. #westcoastlife Come on Dad, throw the dam ball and stop taking pictures of me. #bordercolliesofinstagram @thedogshep out in his happy place, the trails of Nanaimo. #nanaimo #bordercolliesofinstagram #happyplace Went to Haru BBQ Korean Restaurant for the first time, great service, great food and value. #nanaimo #foodie.  @harubbqkoreanrestaurant Fall is definitely in the air. #Fall #Nanaimo. Perfect beach day following pie and chips at the pub. #westcoastliving #parksville #rathtrevorbeach @jenndbowen The TikTok cinnamon bun/roll #foodie #cinnamoroll #yummy https://www.instagram.com/reel/Ch0t5e-pg1f/ Cheers Dad. Still miss yeh. https://www.instagram.com/reel/ChqU7QhgMW6/ I hate wasps, dog on the other hand likes bbq chicken #dogsofinstagram  #flyingchicken #wasps Did not have the time on the weekend to thank everyone for the birthday wishes. @shggy4 would love this bar. So @jenndbowen and I came to Vegas to celebrate my 60th. After check in walked out to the bar and see a birthday balloon and Jenn says that’s for you, nice I think, my sister arranged to bubbly… then this happened… so lucky to have an amazing sister and brother in law who fly all that way from the UK to celebrate with us. Thanks to Jenn for keeping the secret and  coordinating when I would make reservations and plan things. So stressful for her, but she is amazing. No for some fun time. #vegas #parishotellasvegas #birthdays #surprise A photograph of a glass of wine on Instagram. #vegas #noonsomewhere I love where I live. #nanaimo #ocean #mountains #views My new favourite cider @ravensmooncraftcider #goodstuff First out on open water. Around to Newcastle Island #vancouverisland #nanaimo What a difference a couple of years can make. #yardwork #grass #outdoors #chillspace Proof that I can go for dinner and not spill anything on me.
