Best Places to See in BC Burns Bog

One of the best places to see in
British Columbia is Burns Bog.
I visited Burns Bog in April and wanted
to see what it looked like in fall.

In a word, magical.

The soft purple and whites of late blooming
flowers gently fall towards the
still waters that slowly drain the bog.
There is a soft quietness to the air
that speaks in autumn tones remembering
summertime's heat.
Insects still chirp and sing their songs
and small birds flit around you as you
amble through the green enshrouded pathways
at Burns Bog.
I can't wait to see what she looks like in
the winter time.

Best Places to See in BC, Finn Slough

Finn Slough is located the south end
of No. 4 Road in Richmond,
British Columbia.
Finn Slough's history dates back to
the 1890's when a group of Finnish
settlers moved here to become
fishermen of the Fraser River.
Several homes and buildings still exist
at Finn Slough, and I met some very friendly
felines out enjoying the summer evening.
Access to the tiny
island is via an old wooden draw bridge
which can offer some quite picturesque views
of the waterway. However, once
on the island access is limited to the
boardwalk and a small pathway with
no view of the slough. Best
bet is to stay along the roadway and hope
for a glimpse of the charming rustic buildings
between sweetly scented blackberry bushes.
