In July of 2013 Dara and I took a weekend trip to Harrison Hot Springs in British Columbia, so that I could attend a tiny music festival and see De Temps Antan play!
The weekend was entirely delightful and I documented it in these posts:
Here’s the album of all the pics! They’re ordered by which photos were actually used in posts, and then everything else.

Where the Pirates Live, Presumably
Harrison Hot Springs has to put their pirates somewhere, don't they? Taken on July 7, 2013.
Hills Around Lake Harrison 3
Yet more hill and lake. I DID take a lot of shots of this, it's true. But seriously, lookit all that lovely blue water. Can you blame me? Taken on July 7, 2013.
Rock Face by the Road
This was a rock face alongside the road Dara and I hiked along up into the hills just around Harrison Hot Springs. Taken on July 7, 2013.
Breakwater Rocks
Pretty much what this says on the tin, and by tin I mean sign? An arrangement of breakwater rocks at Harrison Hot Springs. Taken on July 7, 2013.

More hills and lake! Taken on July 7, 2013.

More Lake Harrison. I wish I were there right now! Taken on July 7, 2013.
Hills Around Lake Harrison 8
Yet more hills around Lake Harrison. Which, later on that same day, were alive with the sound of some kickass Quebecois music! Taken on July 7, 2013.
Wildflowers
Okay fine something that isn't lake. Pretty wildflowers next to a rock on our hike around Harrison Hot Springs. Taken on July 7, 2013.

Second shot of the wildflowers. Taken on July 7, 2013.
Breakwater Warning
A closeup of the warning sign on the breakwater at Harrison Hot Springs. Taken on July 7, 2013.
Rock Face by the Road 2
Another rock face by the road shot on our hike around Harrison Hot Springs. Taken on July 7, 2013.
Rock Face by the Road 3
A different angle on the previous rock face, with more tree. Really, I took this just because I liked the overall texture. Taken on July 7, 2013.
Rock Face by the Road 3
A longer side angle up the rock face. If it weren't for the wires overhead, this would look pretty neat as the background of a fantasy novel cover, I feel. Taken on July 7, 2013.
Rock Face by the Road 4
Last rock face shot, because I am nothing if not thorough taking pics of views I like, as the lake shots in this gallery will show. Taken on July 7, 2013.
Hills Around Lake Harrison 9
But wait there's more! Hills around the lake, that is. But this is a closer shot and shows more trees and shoreline. Variety! Taken on July 7, 2013.
Hills Around Lake Harrison 10
One more lake and hills shot, but this time with boats! Taken on July 7, 2013.
Treestump
It only stands to reason that, given that I saw a Clearbrook sign on the way up to Harrison Hot Springs on this trip, that I found an interesting "Treestump" as well. (Shoutout to the Elfquest fans!) Taken on July 7, 2013.
