I took that photo on October 1. It was beautiful and also warm (there had been quite a few people sitting on the beach), but yes, you’re right, there was a distinct sense of transience.
I like it when the tourist time fades away. I know it’s not what businesses like, but just for living in a place it’s nice when things go back to a quieter life.
The locals love spring and autumn when it’s not so crowded. July and August are incredibly busy, and were this year, too, despite the restrictions. Most of the tourists were from other parts of BC; there were some from Alberta, but not as many as usual. The businesses do their bulk of their sales in those two months, and we’re very aware of how much we benefit from having them, but it is nice to have things quiet down.
Lovely! Happy Weekend :))
