Well it finally happened: we slipped the lines for the last time this morning from Van Isle Marina where SIRI has been either on the hard or in the marina for the past 3 years!

Since we bought SIRI in 2022, visiting the Butchart Gardens has been on our bucket list. We finally got to visit them recently: once this past fall, and again in early January during their "Magic of Christmas" display. To say the gardens lived up to the hype we had built up over the years would be an understatement.
