after a 3 year hiatus, we finally made it back up to quadra island to nana and captain's canadian headquarters. jackie was in his element and didn't want to leave. thad squeezed in some fishing trips and hikes, and i got to sleep in everyday (thanks, nana & cap'n!) and took way too many photos.
we had an awesome, relaxing trip!
