Canucks know what sh!t's important! Staying at an AirBnB in Nanaimo. Turned on the TV to watch

Vegas vs Dallas. Nada! Called the homeowner. She said we only get a few channels. I tell her I’m trying to watch the hockey game. She says “You can’t get the hockey game?” I tell her I can’t. She says she’ll call her husband right away. He shows up and finds that someone disconnected the cable. He reconnects. Game on!

Fucken eh!

My accommodations were a bunk on a US Naval destroyer and shit on a shingle slung by a surly seaman. AirBnB wasn’t even a silly notion rattling around in someone’s mind yet.

Given unlimited time and resources, I would explore all of Vancouver Island and, more generally, the entire region from coastal Alaska to Puget Sound.
