The archive
The newest guide sits at the top. I go back and rewrite the older ones when something changes on the ground.
The sky does most of the work in every good photograph taken here. A ranked list of the five spots worth the trip, the one I would skip, and why you should be out there before eight in the morning.
The short, honest list of where to eat breakfast here, grouped by whether the morning is the event or you have twenty minutes before the train.
August here is berries, dikes and no shade whatsoever. How to spend the BC Day long weekend without wasting the middle of the day, and what to check with the city before you commit to anything.
Rain here is administrative rather than dramatic, and it settles in for most of the winter. An honest, unpadded plan for spending a wet Saturday in a small city, from the Town Centre out to the Osprey Village dike.
Tips and corrections
Somewhere I missed, or something I got wrong?
I read everything that comes in. If a place has closed, changed hands, or is simply better than I gave it credit for, tell me and I'll go back and eat there again.
