Listening to the leaves drop |

The never ending road less travelled |

Could be gift wrap |

Many layers of Vancouver Island looking out through the bush at Burgoyne Bay. |

The smells of decomposing oak and maple leaves, the cool breezes and the cacophony of wild bird song hit me hard this trip. As I explored various nooks and crannies on the island, I would venture out of the car, wander up a road a bit, take a few pics, just be a sponge for serenity.
