In the winter, sliding down on a wooden sled while it SNOWED. That big city called VANCOUVER. It seemed so far AWAY. Those magnificent mountains on the ocean, going OVER. On vessels like the Mashigone, Smokwa, Bainbridge, what can one SAY! They were very special TIMES. Growing up in Gibsons LANDING. Looking back at what childhood DEFINED, its DEMANDS. As a senior, the glow of its warmth, the Sunshine from that coast, finally one truly UNDERSTANDS.
