Dingy Rescue

Had a lot of rain recently and particularly yesterday! You might have heard in the news about Vancouver being cut off from the rest of the province. All our major highways are either flooded or destroyed because of landslides. Luckily, today was sunny and not windy so we decided to head to the cabin to check on our dinghy which we had left floating. This is how we found it. Very full of water! We’re here for the night only and will be bringing the dingy ashore when we leave tomorrow!

So I take it you had rain on the island as well

[LManning (Laura)]

Glad the dingy was the only damage. Stay safe!

[Mags]

Oh my! Stay safe and I hope it's over.

[Milanie]

Was thinking about you while watching the news of all the rain. Glad this was as bad as it got for you.

[Shutterbug]

Glad you can rescue your dinghy. Our news in California definitely covered your situation. Hope you are able to get where you need to go.

[KWind]

@bkbinthecity We had rain but the southern part of the island got a lot more than us. The malahat was closed yesterday and will be every night this week to fix damage.

[Elizabeth]

Glad to hear you can bail out the boat and bring it ashore.

[Diana]

It sure gave you a great photo op! At least you just need to bale the water out and there is no further damage.

[Kathy A]

I did hear all about the rain and landslides, terrible!

[gloria jones]

Gosh...It sounds like a lot of damage...Take care.

[Mickey Anderson]

Stay safe, that is pretty scary!!

[Ingrid]

Stay safe!

[eDorre]

Glad you are safe!

[Nick]

Hope your dingy is just waterlogged, and not damaged.

[moni kozi]

Nice clear water, though!

[Issi Bannerman]

Glad you have been able to rescue the dingy! Hope everything is calming down now.

[Lesley]

Now this is just fabulous

[CC Folk]

I heard about all the rain and flooding in Washington and Canada. Hope all is well with the cabin and your home. We need rain in California.

[Joan Robillard]

Hadn't heard that but glad you are all safe and rescued your dinghy

[Casablanca]

Just heard about that on the news here in England. Sounded very traumatic, particularly the landslide. Heart with you all over there. Good moment to rescue the dinghy before it was overwhelmed.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Oh dear. So devastating. Keep safe.

[JackieR]

Made our main news, how is that boat still afloat?? Stay safe

[carol white]

Hope conditions improve quickly

[Korcsog Károly]

Unfortunately, I heard a lot of bad news from the West Coast and about the flooding that weighed on Vencouvert. Take care of yourselves!

[wendy frost]

Just in time to save the dinghy we heard all about your flooding on the UK. news

[Bep]

We didn't hear about that on the Dutch TV. Sounds dramatic.
Stay safe.

[Pat Knowles]

Yes I thought of you when it came up on our news today…..keep safe!

[haskar]

Stay safe! The climate is crazy but this is our job.

[Kathy]

Be safe. Hope the worst of it is over now.

[Skip Tribby - ​🖖]

I hadn't heard about all the rain and flooding you've been experiencing. I hope it ends soon

[Carole Sandford]

Didn’t hear about this on the news here. Crazy weather !

[Kate]

I read about that flooding. Glad all is well at the cabin, at least mostly.

[Bill]

Good luck with the aftermath of these terrible storms.

[Jane Pittenger]

Shocking

[Corinne]

Stay safe and take care !
