instead of asking "what do you like, what don't you like" during passionate moments, mistress midori offered a different way to shape the same energy: "what do you sound like when you are enjoying yourself? how does your body move when you are enjoying yourself? what do you sound like when you're bored? how does your body move when you're bored?" then you won't have to ask if what you're doing is good or bad, you'll know.

when the weather is as sunny and warm as it was today, the best way to enjoy it is at the beach. after my shift at the food cupboard i headed down to the dancing bear to grab my german partner in crime and head to lakeside beach.

there are so many beaches along the shores of lake kootenay's west arm. within a ten minute drive, you can visit high traffic beaches and many private property (pffft) hippie bathing suit beaches ;) we decided to hit the more popular lakeside beach beside the big orange bridge for some afternoon sunshine shenanigans.


there were lots of people at lakeside beach today. with weather like this, it made sense that the busiest place in town would be the beach.


nestled at the bottom of lush, tree covered mountains, the waters of lake kootenay shimmered in the warm sunshine. too bad the water wasn't as warm as the sun was. i wasn't the only one who braved the chilly waters of the lake, but it sure was worth it.

jonas had gifted anke a beautiful frisbee that we tossed on the beach in memory of our departed swedish friend. jonas, i know you're reading this. you are missed here brother.

the message on the frisbee is simple and powerful. a pleasant reminder when enjoying the love of disc tossing!


do what you like. like what you do. radiate good vibes. let it fly. aaaah, life is good.

anke had to work at 4, so she left her disc with me at the beach and headed back to the dancing bear. i spent the remainder of the afternoon bathing in the warm rays of the beautiful nelson sunshine.


walking back downtown along the shores of the lake in this town is zen. so much beauty, clean air, and friendly people *sigh* when i stop, take a deep breath, and look around me, i'm reminded that right here, right meow, life is good.





roadkill in nelson...teh horror!


i joined anke at the dancing bear, and shared a lovely meal with her as she worked the front desk. danke shoen anke.

in the lounge area of the hostel i met a guy who was on a two day vacation from tree planting. he had decided to come to town and czech it out, and soak up the city vibes that he is separated from at work. yah, nelson is considered a city. teehee.

i decided to take him to cottonwood falls which was a quick 4minute walk away from the hostel. i also convinced two other people i met in the lounge to join us. they were from the uk, essex to be exact. yes, they agreed that girls from essex are known to be sluts.

there was an unusually high water level in cottonwood creek and the falls. there was so much water coming down that it soaked the normally dry seating area beside the falls and got you soaked if you stood there long enough. the power of the water was the strongest i had ever seen it.


this is what the falls looked like last week.


mo water! mo water! mo water!


cold from the splashing water, we said our goodbyes and left the roar of cottonwood falls behind us.

what a beautifully simple and powerful day.

stop, hey, what's that sound, everybody looks what goin down \m/^_^\m/
