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:
-
- Harrison Hot Springs BC July 2013 trip, Day 1: Getting here
- Harrison Hot Springs BC July 2013 trip, Day 2: De Temps Antan, Round 1
- Harrison Hot Springs BC July 2013 trip, Day 3: De Temps Antan, Round 2
- Harrison Hot Springs BC July 2013 trip, Day 4: Heading home
- Two more fun pics of me and De Temps Antan
Here’s the album of all the pics! They’re ordered by which photos were actually used in posts, and then everything else.
Harrison Hot Springs: More Day 1
Actual Phone Booths
Looking back from 2020 I'm not sure exactly why I took this pic, but I'm pretty sure it was because I was surprised to see actual phone booths at one of the rest stops on the way north to Harrison Hot Springs. Taken on July 5, 2013.
Neat-Looking Tree Stump
This was another rest stop shot, I think, taken as we drove north to Harrison Hot Springs on the first day of the trip. Taken on July 5, 2013.
Neat-Looking Tree Stump 2
Slightly farther back shot of the same neat looking tree stump. Taken on July 5, 2013.

Ah yes, and here's the sign that actually explains the neat-looking tree stump. Taken on July 5, 2013.
Oh That's What Kind of Stump It is
Another angle on the cedar stump, including the sign that explains what type of cedar it was. Taken on July 5, 2013.

One more of the lake sunset, because I was really more or less doing a panorama shot here, right? Taken on July 5, 2013.

WaterwayCreek
A little bit of a waterway Dara and I found while exploring Harrison Hot Springs on our first night there. Pretty sure this is one of the feeder creeks that direct water from the source of the springs to the various pools in the resort? Taken on July 5, 2013.

Lake Missile
Now I'm pretty sure this was me trying to shoot a bird lifting off of a log sticking out of the water. But it sure does look like somebody fired a badly angled missile at the lake! Taken on July 5, 2013.
