                      Yes, more weather
                        related
                        stuff…. The heat wave we had endured a couple of weeks
                        ago was
                        ended by a cold front that brought thunderstorms to many
                        parts of the
                        province and those storms included some pretty heavy
                        downpours. All
                        we got here was some nice rain, enough to cool the
                        forests down a
                        bit. However, the mountains inland got the heavy
                        downpours and that
                        runoff came out via the Squamish River. The sediments
                        being washed
                        down turned the river into a chocolate brown. As the now
                        brown water
                        met the Sound, the tide was going out and it drew the
                        runoff with it.
                        Instead of the usual mixing of the fresh and salt water,
                        the river
                        water stayed on top of the ocean water and stayed
                        together, forming a
                        meandering river on top of the Sound’s salt water. I
                        took these
                        shots from a gondola cabin because I found it
                        interesting. Then the
                        heat came back and more forest fires started, most human
                        causes as
                        per usual. 
                    
                        
                    
                        
                    
                      This has been one
                        of those
                        weeks from hell. Sue had been getting hard to deal with
                        as her moods
                        and anger were getting out of control. It became
                        apparent that one of
                        her meds, the one that helps control anxiety etc needed
                        to be upped.
                        I’m not qualified to make that kind of call so I did
                        manage to make
                        an appointment with the doctor but its not until the
                        first week of
                        next month. It also became apparent that we could not
                        wait that long
                        so I got back on the phone and explained the situation
                        and was
                        finally able to talk to an NP who agreed that her meds
                        needed to be
                        upped. So, I was able to double her evening med and that
                        did help.
