 I was down town this last week at Vancouver's Trade & Convention Centre at a MLS sponsored real estate event. On the break I headed outside & as I gazed over to Grouse Mountain & back down to Stanley Park & the harbour I felt like it was summer. My mind drifted back to my student days when I worked pool side @ Bayshore. Many evenings I was  serinaded by Frank Baker as he lifted his horn & headed out for a evening cruise........the melodies drifting back up to the pool deck. Those were magical summers. Much has changed in Vancouver since the 70's but the beauty of the natural landscape is still as enchanting today as it was as I stood watching Frank head off into the sunset over 40 years ago.
