Jonquils are due in early August,
again heralding the onset of Spring.
Acacia trees should be in bloom in

They are said to be the first signs of Spring.

I had never seen or heard of the
Chemainus Murals
prior to 2018.
We passed through Chemainus…
…stopping only long enough to capture
some images of the town’s 36-40 murals…
..the morning we left Vancouver Island
for Canada’s mainland.
The interesting thing about
the Murals is that they…
…not only tell the story of Chemainus,
many are also…
..integrated into the landscape,
as my final three images depict.

Around an hour drive from Vancouver Island’s
Victoria we came to the township of Chemainus,
famous for its Murals.
Some of these murals will follow in my
Photo Walk post.
These murals are not in any specific place,
that is a Mural Park, or similar.
Rather…
…they are on any wall…
…in the town.
Murals also…
…focussed on the pioneering days…
… when wind…
…steam…
…and manual labour was the way tasks were completed.
