referee77 Posted August 17, 2010 Hi everyone,Last weekend we spent 6 days (Tuesday, August 3 to Sunday, August 8) on Harrison Lake.Google Map --> CLICK HERE <--Friday/Saturday/Sunday was the Harrison Lake Poker Run. While we did not take part in the actual poker run, we did watch most of the Run and took part in the "lunch stop" festivities.The weather for the first few days was extremely sunny and HOT...however, you will see in a lot of the photos that the air is very hazey. There are a tonne of forest fires in BC right now...and we are experiencing very smokey air from all of the fires. Then, on Saturday for the Poker Run...as it has done like clockwork for the past 4 years for the previous Poker Runs...it started to rain.Here are some photos from our week on Harrison Lake.Looking back towards the town of Harrison Hot Springs=====================================================Someone kiteboarding (not me)=============================Paddle Boat Cruise??====================Here's where we spent the night (Long Island Bay)=================================================Dinner is served!! Mmmm Mmmm ===============================I think this deer liked the smell of dinner=========================================== Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
referee77 Posted August 17, 2010 As we always like to do...after dinner we jumped into the Dinghy and took a cruise around Long Island Bay...Our friends (with the Crown Line) and our boats in the background================================================================A bunch of shots================= Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
referee77 Posted August 17, 2010 As we returned from our Dinghy Cruise...it was getting dark...and of course we turned on the underwater lights before we departed...Gotta jump in for a swim in the lights!!========================================= Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
