I didn't like Dublin when I visited back in 2008; I make no secret of it. But some of my ancestors lived up this very street, and the cognitive dissonance of vice on the left facing virtue on the right may explain much.

Don't mind me over here thinking cold thoughts… 🥵

Our bike ride yesterday was an exhilarating one in a way we never expected.
A short story (not long).
Although the trip to Kingsport was uneventful (I sometimes wish there was a little bit of flat ground on that ride, instead of just up and down hills all the time), it was hot and I was glad of the wet buff on my neck. There was a bit of a tail wind, though not very strong. Remember that for later...
When we got to Kingsport and had our snack under the trees, we got notified of a rainfall and thunderstorm warning, so we hurried to head back before the storm broke. People were packing up on the beach as we started out (into a headwind that was picking up) and one lady wished us good luck...
We were still about 10kms, (~7mi) from home when the rain started. And did it ever start!
We had rain jackets (Showerspass) that we put on, actually quite glad for the bit of warmth they provided now that the temperature was dropping fast and the wind was strong in our faces, and they were great for our tops but our legs and feet were drenched, actually sloshing with rain water.
We stood at the side of the road for about 10 minutes and with no end in sight decided to just ride home in the downpour. Thankfully there was no thunderstorm where we were.
To be honest, we found the whole thing quite exhilarating and we were really energized when we got in, drenched to the skin and laughing.
Here's the photo I took as we were leaving, heading into that dark cloud. (I loved the light on those grasses and flowers in the foreground.) It looks best on a bigger screen.
Don't be afraid of a ride in the rain. This one was a highlight of our week!

I missed Silent Sunday and now the working week has begun. #MoodyMonday #Photography

Snow in town has been almost non-existent this winter, so walking along the river through the snow Saturday morning was a treat.

Not far from Lima,
where city lights usually blur the night sky.
But the Milky Way was incredible,
a clear sky,
and stars shining like never before.#NatureOnMastodon

#Moss covered big leaf maple trees are the main tree species growing in & around the trails & #riparian zones at #HeadquartersTownsite Park in #Merville on #VancouverIsland.
This is a view of part of the #TsolumRiver.
In 1964, Mount Washington Copper Mining Co. moved into its watershed & built a copper mine. By 1966, they left the area after extracting 940,000 tonnes of waste rock. Even though mining lasted only 3 years, repercussions of the mining practices can still be seen today. What was once a river that was sprawling with 15,000 coho salmon depleted to only 14 by 1984. In 1997, Tsolum River Task Force was formed by over 200 local residents with the goal of restoring Tsolum River's health & productivity.
The river previously supported large populations of salmon, steelhead & cutthroat trout & contributed significantly to the local economy. The economic benefit to the community, in 2007 dollars, was estimated at $2.7 million annually. Past remediation efforts have contributed to improved water quality in the Tsolum River. However, further improvement is needed in order to allow restoration of the fisheries resource.
A 6-ways partnership was founded in 2001 between the BC Ministry of Environment, Timber West, Tsolum River Restoration Society, Pacific Salmon Foundation, Environment Canada & Fisheries & Oceans Canada.
This partnership led to a successful wetland project, which reduced the copper levels to the point that fish stocks have now returned to the Tsolum River. The wetland has a limited life of 5-10 years, after which copper leachate will again impact the emerging fish populations.Recommended reading:

One of the things I really enjoy doing is trying to finish images with a few different looks to see what variety of ideas they can communicate. Most of the time, only one version ever sees the light of day. Here’s another look at the “SilentSunday” post from yesterday. This was my first (and typical) take on it but I thought it was better for #MonochromeMonday or maybe #MoodyMonday.

Vorbildlich den #silentSunday zelebriert, damit der #moodyMonday weniger hart kickt.
(Naja, es war zumindest einen Versuch wert.)

Vroeger in de dagen van foto-memes op foto-website's had je #Moodymonday. Op #mastodon heet dat nu #Mondaymood, ik vind dat iets vlakker, vraag me niet waarom.
Maar op #Monday moest ik aan #Mood denken en dacht ik #Pink met een dreigende lucht, zoals hier in #Playadelcarmen
