Spock does Milestones on the Inner Harbour Victoria BC




Last night we had a birthday celebration at Milestones on the Inner Harbour. The meal was great and the complimentary "Ganache Torte" they gave me with the sparkling candle was so delicious it bordered on being criminal. My friend Terry said he saw Spock in the restaurant and we all thought the wine was getting to him. Later when we were leaving, I saw this guy who was about 6'9" tall and when I approached him, he had an uncanny resemblance to Spock. Maybe he still might be out there.....who knows what the far reaches of the Universe will unfold? The young hostess at the door never heard of Spock....yikes...I think I have had too many birthdays. If you look closely behind Spock, up and to the right you will see the beam of light locking on to Spock. I heard him say, "beam me up Scotty-some idiot is taking my picture" and he vanished.

The surf from surge always seems to roll in at French Beach. Often you can hear the rattle of stones as the waves receed...add in a bit of gorgeous scenery and you have French Beach!

Olympic View Golf Course - A Victoria Gem







Today we played the beautiful and amazingly scenic Olympic View Golf Course. The staff we met were very friendly and helpful and the course was in good shape as usual. This course has a lot of unique holes that set this course apart from others in Greater Victora. It doesn't get much better than this. The restaurant and lounge serves great food and it has one of the best views from the outside deck. The proshop is very well equipped. It is really worth a visit if you have not been there before. If you have been there before, you did come back, right? The weather was amazing....I take credit for that! I certainly urge you to give it a try.
